Almost certainly. I think, in general, it is an insult to the citizenry to keep alive a mass murderer using shared public resources.

That said, I do think society has a responsibility to attempt rehabilitation where possible, and I've adopted a view that the penalties for serious crimes should probably increase with age, so that nobody is ever serving life or de-facto life sentences but very young offenders are at least given a chance. But I am not sure that rehabilitation is possible for a racially-motivated mass murderer who commits his crime at any age; I think not. Voted Yes in the poll.
