It's fine to remove a criminal from society/the world. It's wrong to maim people for the sake of making us feel satisfied. People say make criminals think twice with obscene punishments... the problem is they never even think once. If they did 90% of crime wouldn't happen in the first place.
I personally do not agree with the Osama deal. He needed to be removed from the planet for the safety of the US, but we just resorted to the same tactics terrorists use and sadly our civilians rejoiced.
IMHO, the US has become a nation in fear rather than a nation of patriots. My wife truly worries that I am going to meet my end just doing the right thing while a bunch of people stand around doing nothing.
The sad part is once they realize how much of a failure they were instead of rising above that, they will openly discuss how I did the wrong thing and that's why I was killed.
