I think we can both agree that the death penalty laws as they are 
currently carried out, are absurd, and even counter to good order. 
 
If one is concerned with minimizing loss of innocent life, then 
after conviction for murder, one only has to consider whether the 
convict fits the profile of those who try to kill or escape while 
in prison, and just execute those. 
 
I think further, that execution is a poorly used resource. Spoze 
the state filmed them and sold them as 'snuff films', and used 
the proceeds to improve the schools and child protection services 
which would prevent some murderers from developing in the first 
place?  Along that line, I would hold gladatorial matches which 
would probly draw enough to make a ton of money for that purpose.
