You know, I've been reflecting, and I think I see the breakdown.
I'm operating on the assumption that as a society, we generally agree that murdering people because we don't like something they did is, by default, immoral, and requires strong justification to be deemed good and acceptable.
I didn't realize there were people like you around here who don't believe that for some reason.
Thanks for enlightening me, I guess I should edit that assumption into my parent comment so other people like you don't get confused.

I made no such assertion
You asked me to add it to the parent comment for people like you...
Is the death penalty moral? It’s killing people because we don’t like something that they did. I want to know how you really feel about it.
I'm generally not in favour of it, and would prefer isolated life without parole. But I can imagine there might be exceptional cases where I might agree with it. You?
