Re: Does capital punishment reduce crime?
I have seen a number a sources that say that CP is not a deterrent. I don't have any handy, but can speak to a friend of mine (Hesd of the local Amnesty International group that is a lawyer that is active fighting the US's stance on CP. He should have plenty.)
I can find no moral concept that is not theologically based (and contadicted in the same source..eye for an eye, thou shall not kill, etc.). If one feels murder is wrong, one by default I feel should be opposed to the sanction murder of someone else.

Don't walk behind me; I may not lead. Don't walk in front of me; I may not follow. Just walk beside me and be my friend.
