LINK A Texas Man Became the 17th Inmate Executed This Year | Time
If executions prevented people from committing crimes,Texas would be paradise now. “I’m a Christian and the death penalty and accepting it was very, very difficult for me,” Bouman said. “But I also believe the law of the land is important.”

There is a difference between emotional thinking and logical reasoning. Emotionally, I would agree that there are people out there who the world would be better off without. That said, the death penalty does not deter crime and cost more money to impose due to the needed automatic appeals that some want to get rid of (And even with those appeals innocent people still get executed). I, also, question the idea: Do we as a nation want our government killing its citizens?
