This comment implies that the *method* of killing is the fundamental ethical problem with the death penalty. The killing part is the fundamental problem for me.

... Yes... Any discussion on an ethical way to do something, is first predicted on the thing happening. There's an ethical way to cut aomeone's leg off, that doesn't mean we should cut Bob's leg off, it doesn't even mean we should cut anyone's leg off under any circumstances. Just that if we were going to do something, there are ways to do that ethically. People really don't learn this shit anymore?
