S.D. governor halts execution of killer

[AuH2O]

Obviously the criminals should  be executed. But what I find interesting is how often these people torture their victims, even though it decreases their odds of getting away with the crime, often substantially. It means that the motive was only partly to cover up the crime-- mostly, the motive was to act like a monster.

But as usual, the lefties love killers and hate victims. I bet they'd change their tune, at least mentally, if they went through what this guy did.

Good for the governor.

Death should be in God's hands, not ours.

You have it backwards. It's the afterlife that's in 'God's hands.' The death penalty just forces the decision at an earlier date (presumably most murderers don't fare well in God's analysis, but some are repentent no doubt).
