Where Does Our Death Penalty Passion Come From

I'm not a Victim, I'm a Survivor..

That being said, my 2nd girlfriend's Father was acquitted from what they called a Crime of Passion, I'm not sure what the details of it all were, it did make the local paper when it happened, my g/f and her brother kept it, as proof of what their Father did to their Mother..
He also got custody of them..
It was painfully evident his preference towards my g/f's step-siblings..

The "system" is seriously Flawed..
That much is Painfully evident for many more reasons than I can verbalize...
I don't advocate Death Penalty, mostly because I believe they should Live with their conscience, small price for taxpayers, lifelong agony for Convict...
Death Penalty is the "easy way" out of their Guilt.
The convicts Death won't bring back their victims to the Families involved, they'll have some sort of closure, but, that's it...
