It's still not as bad as I would have thought.

^^^^ Good to see 40% of Americans don't cede to the blood thirst that tragedies like this always foster.

The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 61% of Likely U.S. Voters believe the surviving Boston marathon bombing suspect should receive the death penalty if convicted and found guilty.

That's about what you'd expect.  Gallup has been collecting data for years on the question of capital punishment and the low 60s is the trend now for capital punishment.  Usually the question is "death penalty for murder?" but I think that translates well enough into this particular suspect and the crimes for which he has been charged.




Oh God, the 90s were such a horrible time.
