        There is hypocrisy among evangelicals who support the death penalty yet call themselves pro-life even because they are against abortion.

        Well, you are a troll and someone who takes the easy route, so I will not bother continuing this interesting conversation.

        As an American, I'm very disappointed that we have the death penalty. But we are a right wing society more or less.

        I used to be torn about it until my nephew was shot IN THE BACK during a robbery. He laughed while he did it. His son is left fatherless.

        Respect your grief, Anita. You have justified reasons why you feel the way you do. Not everyone does.
