Seriously, I fully and enthusiastically support this. It shouldn't be up to men to make such a permanent and irreversible judgement.
Not only that, it actually costs more to execute criminals than it does to sentence them to life-in-prison (due to the costs of mandatory appeals and other safeguards). There is literally no rational argument, moral or fiscal, in favor of maintaining the death penalty.
That is a lie. There is a moral arguement which is stated as a Commandment of the LORD in Exodus 21: 23-25 which states "But if there is any further injury, then you shall appoint as a penalty life for life, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot, burn for burn, wound for wound, bruise for bruise.

What would happen to the persons already on death row including known terrorists like Dzhokhar Tsarnaev?
