My opinion?

"My opinion is, if the death of 3,000 people isn’t sufficient for a death penalty in this country then why do we even have the death penalty?"
DEBORAH BURLINGAME, whose brother died in the Sept. 11 terror attacks, on the government’s decision to seek capital punishment against six Guantánamo Bay detainees.

Let me answer that. One; the death penalty is morally wrong. It’s all about revenge and does nothing to deter crime. But that’s just my personal opinion. Two; it’s wrong because the bush administration has made a mockery of justice with the existence of that prison in a foreign country; Cuba. Here it is, almost seven years after the crime and without evidence or judicial hearings, the powers that be are talking of death sentences handed out by a military tribunal. That’s the kind of justice that is found in dictatorships. (Speaking of Cuba…think Colonel Fulgencio Batista) Let’s shed some light on that prison!
