That sounds about right, and I'm opposed to the death penalty.

So am I.

Having actually been in an execution chamber gives you a whole different
perspective to the process.

It also is a lot less expensive to incarcerate some one for life than it
is to execute them.

Leaving aside the arguments for and against the death penalty, how can it
possibly be more expensive to execute somebody than to keep him/her in
prison for life?
