I think in the past 25 years or so something like 69 death row inmates were found to be innocent and released thanks in large part to the advances in DNA.

I can't say that I will never support the death penatly because in the past I have, but it is something that should never be taken lightly. People have asked me, "well what about Hitler, you mean you wouldn't fry him?". I say I wouldn't. Why do you think he commited suicide? Because he knew that was the easiest way out.
