Because, (not to be repetitive) I just don't think anyone has the moral right to take someone's life in these circumstances. Killing the enemy in a war is different as is killing someone in self defense when otherwise your life may be in danger or lost. Considering we are now saying that it is OK to be killing American citizens with drones who are only suspected of crimes (along with everyone near them), I think that is a specious argument. These people had due process and a number of appeals before they even get close to the needle. It is not a reckless decision these days and if that many courts say it is in our interest to terminate someone, do it. Our friends daughter was kidnapped and tortured. The two convicted were sentenced to death. That was at least 10 years ago. Still sitting in prison. |
