I think there's something about capital punishment that satisfies our sense of justice. Some people really don't deserve to live, or at least that how our brains rationalize punishment. However, intellectually, we know the system is very flawed and that alternatives are both cheaper and fairer. but it's hard to get past that emotion, especially knowing the horrible crimes that are committed and wanting someone punished.
Interestingly, Ohio's Republican governor has recently come out against the death penalty. I agree with him.
