Saddam shouldn't have been killed ... ???

The title of this thread is not my opinion, fact or a statement of what anyone I know thinks ...

Just opening this up and wondering ... I mean .... who thinks it's right that you take a life for a life (or lives) ?

I watched some footage on Sky News of him being taken to the rope and saw the guys in black headmasks talking to him etc ....

And I felt ill ....

I don't know, but .... it just seems to me that the whole death penalty thing is wrong. I know it's an old debate, but shit ... killing a guy. It's morally wrong. Aren't we (the supporters) as bad as him for this ? He killed people... with no remorse. But does that mean we have the right to take his life?

I dunno ... I'm feeling a little uneasy about this.

Btw: Saddam is just one example of the thousands that have been killed by governments as punishment... and I'm using him as an example, but really, this goes out to every execution.
