If we have state sanctioned killing for people who have killed, why don't we have state sanctioned rape for people who have raped? I mean, really. What's the difference?
Because I have healed from being raped. I have healed and moved on. You can't really heal from death. Those killed don't get their life back. They don't even get the chance to try to be a better person, they don't get letters from loved ones, they don't get to go to a library and read, they don't get to buy noodles from the commissary, they don't get to see the fame they have created for themselves. If the victim can't move on then the one doing the damage shouldn't either.
Do you think it's good to base a justice system on an emotion-based "eye for an eye" type of deal?
