If we kill them and find out we made a mistake we can't correct it.  If they are alive and in jail we can release them. It is pretty simple.  What part of it don't you not understand?

And, please, instead of trying to be clever and answering with more enigmatic questions, just say what you mean.  Your last 5 posts in this thread have been questions.  Why are you so afraid to make a statement?

The point is that we are a society of rules and we have to trust the rule of law and the judicial system to reach the correct verdict. Are mistakes made? Occasionally. Even if they are released you cannot give them back the time they spent incarcerated.

Obviously the death penalty needs to be reserved for extreme clear cut cases. However we cannot remove it from the books because we might be wrong; because then the next step is we cannot confine them because we might be wrong.

Hopefully I overcame my fear of making a statement. I know how much you frown on someone answering with a question.
