My response to Politics within a Local Society, ' An eye for an eye."

This editorial has an amazing points, and gets to the point. It states accurately how the state of Texas is on the death penalty, and how it is a great thing. The death penalty is a good thing to have, and the way Texas does it, is amazing. People who commit crimes that hurt people in a sexual way, or they end up in death should be put to death. As they said, it will give the family of the victims a peace of mind, and feel like justice had been served. We have the fastest death penalty in the USA. As the comedian Ron White said, "I'm from Texas and in Texas we have the death penalty and we use it. That's right, if you come to Texas and kill somebody, we will kill you back. That's our policy. Right now there's a bill in the Texas legislature that would speed up the execution process of those convicted of a heinous crime with more than three credible witnesses. If more than three people saw you do what you did you don't sit on death row for 15 years Jack, you go straight to the front of the line. Other states are trying to abolish the death penalty. My state's putting in an express lane."
I am proud to be from a state where they punish people for the crimes they commit, and not just let them sit there in jail being able to do what they can't do outside the jail walls. Plus, why should our tax dollars go to feeding them food, watch television and all that like the author of this article originally said. Also, the news needs to stop giving the people who commit these horrible crimes, all the media attention they get. It makes them popular, and others see this and think, "hey if we do this, we will become famous and get a lot of attention." Every state should have the whole, "An eye for an eye" concept.
