The death penalty fits in here, feel free the watch penn and teller's bullshit episode on it.
They oppose it because they believe that even for 1 innocent person to be killed for every.. 1000, or whatever murderers, thats 1 too many.
I read some article on MSN on this yesterday '5 impossible questions' or something, its easy.

Thats not quite what I'm getting at, although I didn't make that very clear.

I'm getting at that even if you can know, for certain, that not one single person would wrongly die, is that all that matters?

I'm not arguing too many babies will die, I'm arguing that's not the only thing, or even the most important thing to think of.

Is it right? In and of itself, in a vaccum, is something right?
