people that oppose it say that it violates human rights, but its my opinion that if you brutally murder someone you forfeit those basic rights. granted that it seems hypocritical to take a life for taking a life, it's one of those circumstances i'll overlook. and i'm not for arbitrarily enforcing the penalty, it has to be with good reason. but before anyone jumps down my throat, think about this scenario: your husband, mother, child(etc) was beaten to near death, then tortured, then viciously murdered, and you saw the murderer smiling at you in court, pleased with himself...would a life sentence be enough for you?
