mission. The credit should ac...

I recently read an article from the ACLU, written
by Adam Bedau. It explained, quite eloquently,
that for society to execute a murderer made
society no better than the murderer himself. He
said, ? The executioner is no better than the
criminal. ? I was impressed by this moral stance,
but I was surprised to read that he failed to
apply this logic consistently. For example, the he
went on to argue that life imprisonment would be a
more appropriate penalty for murder than death.
