My wife and I were discussing your post referenced above.  My wife is from 
Great Britain.  As you know, Great Britain does not have a death penalty.  
My wife, however, supports the death penalty.  She makes a valid point in  
with rehabilitation, society becomes the test lab and we are the guinea 
pig.  Offenders are "rehabilitated" and then turned out on society, on us. 
 Do we really want to take a chance on some of these people being "all 
better?"

Do we want a repeat of Charles Manson, John Gacy, Henry Lee Lucas, and 
from Great Britain, Ian Brady and Myra Hindley and The Yorkshire Ripper?  
I do not think that society as a whole, would care for this.  

Another note was that even people who are against the death penalty could 
not or would not defend Gacy and play on sympathy to prevent Gacy's 
execution.

As always, your comments are welcome.
Your Obd'nt Sv'nt
