I’m anti death penalty for a different reason, as I suspect many are. I simply don’t believe the government should have the capability to kill a citizen outside of self-defense, or in the defense of others. Even if no one innocent was ever executed.

It isn’t, in any state or federally, that I’m aware of, legal to sell human body parts. Ether fetal tissue or not.
