The DEATH Penalty

[Angrboda]

What if I were the innocent one who got a guilty conviction?
If I were the one to get dealt that bad hand, that would truly suck, and of course, I would be angry at the system.

However, there's a difference, and THIS is my point right here:
If I was about to be executed rather than put into prison for the remainder of my life, I would STILL support the death penalty. Imprisonment is FAR worse an injustice than death by lethal injection IMO. My anger at that moment would not be over the fact that I was about to be executed, but rather that the system had failed me in proving my innocence. Opponents to the death penalty think that life in a cage is somehow "less unjust" for an innocent man. I do not for a moment feel that that is a legitimate defense of life imprisonment.

The difference is between reversible harm and irreversible harm in punishing an innocent; you can compensate a wrongly convicted lifer and return them to society; you can't bring the dead back to life.

I honestly didn't read the rest as it started with a fallacious appeal, ignored well understood principles of law and justice, and proceeded to ramble ever more incoherently.
