A Plug for the Death Penalty

How often do we hear the argument that if we lock up a killer for life "he can never murder again".

I have pointed out before that is completely FALSE! He can continue to murder -- other inmates and the Correction Officers. Plus there is always a chance to escape and murder again on the streets.

From the SeattleTimes.com:

A Monroe Reformatory inmate who strangled a cellmate with the draw string from sweat pants was convicted of second-degree murder.

Read the rest on the SeattleTimes.com webiste.

The only way this killing may not have happened is if the murderer was dead due to the death penalty
