I never said we should keep the death penalty in the US.

Someone said it was wrong to execute people who are guilty of murder, I don't think that's true.

Then why are you making arguments about whether we're sure some hypothetical defendant is guilty or not? That's entirely irrelevant to the argument at hand, and all I've seen from you is an assertion that you think it's better that innocent people be executed rather than spend life in prison.

My response would be that it's preferable that an innocent person, after being released, expresses that they'd have preferred to have been executed, than it would be for a no longer alive innocent prisoner to not be able to make that judgment for themselves after being found innocent.
