        @TheOnion As soon as one of you proves perfect knowledge is possible, I will think about murdering people in the state's name. Not until.

        @TheOnion Deterrent effect on those who have been tried, found rightfully guilty (e.g. Ted Bundy) and may possibly be set free one day.

        @TheOnion clearly the misperception resides in the belief than anything can be a deterrent to "snapping". Flawed logic makes broke people.
