Me too.

I'm actually pretty conservative about jail sentences. For example, I think in most cases that child molesters should be locked up for life.

I just think the death penalty is repugnant and provides no justice. Locking murderers up with no chance for parole does "weed" them from society. If the issue is that it's our tax money paying for their incarceration, I'd rather mine pay for that instead of killing in my name.
