Well, not what "unjustified" means to *me*, but to what society says.  In the case
of capital punishment, society may say that *that* is justice; therefore
executions are justified in the eyes of that society.  If you mean to agree to
disagree that society should never punish crimes with executions, than okay.  I
actually tend to agree.


If a given group of people reach a democratic decision after am informed,
educated and objective debate - who am I to argue against they are "wrong"?
I may disagree, but I can only respect their opinion. This issue aside, at
times eventualities may be reached which suit the needs of the majority - at
the expense of a minority. In that case, questions must be asked, and the
minority must be protected.
