[QUOTE="Thomas Rogers, post: 854386, member: 60724"] TomT, I'd dare say that many if not most of the western world nations without capital punishment enjoy violent crime rates lower than here in the U.S. Capital punishment is costly. Incarceration in costly. Neither are fixing the violent crime problems in our country that continue to grow. So what are we going to do to solve the problem? I'd rather figure out a way to make fewer violent criminals and murders in this country than simply feel good about being able to kill a murder that might one day kill a family member. But then, that latter approach is just another example of good old American "closing the barn door after the horse gets out" mentality. The source of the problem isn't how we punish. The source of the problem is having the criminals in the first place. TJR [/QUOTE]
