When talking about life and death I could not possibly disagree with you more strongly.

Well I don't really know what to say. Killing an innocent is a horrible thing, but leaving someone alive can end up with more death. In a way it might not really matter. If someone did something bad enough, and is locked away where other inmates can get to them, some inmates may take it upon themselves to kill the person anyway.
