Is this a true representation of your view on morality? Or are you simply trying to save face?
Let's see if this interpretation of what you just said makes a difference:
Killing is killing whether done on a whim, for vengeance, or it was the only way to stop someone from continuing to rape your wife. Anyone that kills is backwards. I oppose the death penalty, my only point here is demonstrating that your superficial equivocation is without merit.
Australia last put a person to death in 1967, New York State in 1963. Which is more backward in this regard?
