And then I'll think about what the person did; like the man who raped and killed a 20 month old baby girl, and then raped and killed her mother. Everyone was complaining that he 'gasped several times' before dying. How inhumane! I just can't see how anyone who commits such atrocities against humanity has any business maintaining a pulse. I dunno... I used to be adamantly against capital punishment, but having children has severely, emotionally skewed my perspective on the matter. Probably to the point that I shouldn't even be weighing in.
I would say that such an individual was mentally ill. That is not a choice that rational human beings makes.
