I think in some instances that the death penalty is required.

The death penalty is becoming a way of life in this country.

I don't think I would want the responsibility for enforcing the death penalties. There's always the inevitable question of whether someone you gave the order to execute might truly have been innocent.

I support the death penalty. But I also think there has to be no margin for error.

Yes, I support the death penalty. It is an issue that cannot be fudged or hedged.

We're also the only country that has the Death Penalty. That's something to boast about, isn't it?

My objection to the death penalty is based on the idea that this is a democracy, and in a democracy the government is me, and if the government kills somebody then I'm killing somebody.

Concerning Poland, I can only say that the peoples of Central Europe and Hungary are a community in fate, to the death. Many of us would spill our blood for Poland any time. And vice versa: in an emergency, many Polish people would give his life to protect Hungarians. This has happened more than once over the course of history.

The goal is justice, not executions. We all want to make sure the process is fair and that the right person is punished. These recommendations are essential to that goal.
