Capital Punishment with assigned sides

Those who are interested, join in - once you do, I'll assign you a side with something like a coin flip or something (but if one side starts getting too many people I'll even it up).
So, I'll start. I'm assigning myself to be pro-capital punishment just because I'm anti-capital punishment. First person to argue what I say gets to be exempt from the coin toss and will be anti-capital punishment.
Killing those who have committed such atrocities as murder and rape ensures that they won't do it again, and the family of the victim(s) get their revenge and so feel better about the whole thing.

I actually have no coins on me, so I spun a highlighter and said "left or down = pro, right or up = anti." Cap pointed left so you're pro.

Ergo, the death penalty is an efective deterrant against murder. I wouldn't go so far as to apply it to Rape or most other crimes, however, as citations of the baby Lindbergh law may follow.
Killing murderers saves lives!

A brief statement on capital punishment:
The death penalty is good for taxpayers because taxes no longer have to go towards that criminal's food, healthcare, and etc.

EDIT: Could we color-code our posts if we're for or against? Or would that be a silly rule?
