Not to mention those who were executed for doing nothing at all. I was pro death penalty until I read Norman Mailer's 'The Executioner's Song'. A harrowing tale. I am not opposed to chain gangs though. If someone commits a crime he has to pay back. Sitting in a cell with a colour TV is not the answer. They must be put to work. After all, the rest of us have to do that everyday.
