36. No, I don't.

Saying that there is no way to be certain in no way states that I think the majority of those on death row are innocent. But, that is irrelevant, anyway. It doesn't matter if ALL the people on death row are guilty. It still doesn't change the fact that there is no way to be 100% sure. Since instating the death penalty RISKS executing the innocent, it isn't worth it? See?

If a loved one of mine was brutally murderd I'd want the fucker to pay with his life. But, that isn't what the justice system is about. I certainly don't want other people to pay for satisfying my blood lust and revenge.
