Which is proven to be a moot argument, since capital cases cost the tax payer more than life imprisonment. There are a lot of moot arguments surrounding the death penalty. It doesn't deter crimes, it isn't cheaper and sometimes innocents are killed.

I guess that covers it.

Not quite. It's applied inconsistently and unfairly too. It's depraved and barbaric. It has no place in a civilized society. People need to grow up and get over their primitive need for revenge.
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.
