Good for you. Most folks don't understand that when big paydays are awarded, it's all of us that pay in the long run. They mistakenly think that all the money comes from the company, like they all have unlimited funds for these things. Even if they do, they'll find a way to protect it and hit the consumer for the tab.
On the other hand, I'm against the death penalty. It's not a deterrent and death row inmates cost the public more then life term sentences due to the appeals process.
However, I sympathize with opposing views, can't begin to understand the grief undergone by families who's loved ones have been victimized by heinous crimes, and agree that McVeigh had to be executed, just because of the scope, etc.
