Just looking for a little clarification - just how many innocent people have to get torched before you would lose sleep?  A hundred?  A thousand?  Half of those receiving the death penalty?  Is it ok as long as we get one who's really guilty?

I don't mind one bit your belief in the death penalty; however, arguments like you've put here make me cringe.  "Casualties of war" or "the price we pay for safety" are easy to believe in as long as it's not your relative or friend who's getting "torched incorrectly."

The numbers are irrelevant. The percentages of wrongfully executed are well below any threshold of error any rational process control, in a process run by humans, can be expected to achieve. So no, I don't give a flying rat's hindquarter if it is 10 or 100. Given the burden of proof and, if you had bothered to read an earlier post, the amount of evidence that is NOT allowed to be considered, and the filtration process that is the appeals train, I don't see the numbers increasing geometrically as you illustrate, Chicken Little. The slope ain't that slippery.

As to if it is or was me, or my family, take your red herring bait and go fish somewhere else. I am not a criminal, nor are my family. We have a zero per cent chance of being executed for being First Degree Murderers, but a greater than zero chance of being killed or maimed by some lowlife scum.

Put that in your pipe and smoke it.
