Position on Capital Punishment

I think Capital Punishment is a very sensitive topic and I do not think I can choose a side on whether or not I believe it is ok. There are some situations where I would agree that the death sentence is the best option, but then when I really take the time to think about it I really do not believe that it's the right thing to do. It is very, very hard to give my side on capital punishment because of many many reasons. Some reasons are a little more personal than others. One example where I believe capital punishment is 100% reasonable is the Sandy Hook shooting in Newtown, Connecticut, where twenty-year old Adam Lanza fatally shot 20 children between the ages 6-7 as well as 6 adult staff members. He also killed his own mother before heading to the school. This is someone who I think would have deserved the capital punishment if he had not committed suicide before the police got to him. My views on the death penalty are on going and I can argue about it forever. I can not say I am completely for capital punishment, but I am definitely not completely against it.
