    I understand the feeling, but try not to pigeonhole. There are 300 million Americans, and I haven’t done a survey, but a substantial percent of the population thinks that the death penalty sucks. That’s one reason many states don’t use it at all.

      I get that some states don’t do it, but the federal government also does it on behalf of everyone.
