Well, what is "moral" is relative to one person or another. There is no universal morality.
It could be argued that transcendental moral facts exist. Not that I would argue it, but just saying.

However, if someone is threatening the life/lives of another person or multiple people, I'm not against using lethal force if necessary, but I think that's bordering on another topic.
Just to clarify for others, I don't mean lethal force in the face of imminent danger. By death penalty, I mean an execution.

Oh it most definately can. It's an argument that's been going on for ~3000 years now, probably longer. I'm up for debating it in another thread, but this thread will go way off topic if we get into that

I think life in Prison is just as effective, if NOT worse, most people that do multiple killings are at the end up their lifespan anyways, mentally atleast... so by killing somebody I'm going to stand by the statement that it isn't justifiable to kill somebody for killing somebody, it's just hypocritical... and Immoral.
