Time to make my little comeback....

Killing the inidividual that causes you some sort of trauma or pain, doesn't take away the pain. I'll give you that. Although, it does in some way relieve the individual(s) involved, knowing that the rapist or murderer is gone from this world, and has suffered a fate that they deserved. It's just another sick human being off the streets. One that might have caused someone else such harm in the future had he or she been left alive.
Once again, you are right. It doesn't take the pain away. But, if I had something horrible happen to my loved one, and I knew who the murderer was and where he was located, I would go after him, and make him suffer for his crimes. What's more, I'd find temporary satisfaction in knowing that he suffered just as much, if not more, than they did. And you can't say that other people wouldn't do this. You haven't the slightest clue what you would do in such a situation. You change drastically, and the world changes with you. You look at things from a different perspective, and you want nothing more but revenge. Whether or not you act on it matters not, as the pain will not go away, but nonetheless, you have the thought of vengeance in your mind. You may not commit the act, but you do ponder it regardless.
I'd love to name you five murderers who have been repeat offenders. I've seen plenty on Cold Case Files. However, I do not know their names. You have to understand that psychopathic and sociopathic individuals would not hesitate to commit the same crime twice, if they are freed. They are emotionaly immature. They do not understand the difference between right and wrong. They are hollow human beings who could care less about the consequences. Could you honestly tell me that if we were to put Jeffrey Dahmer in jail early in his life, and he parolled somehow, that he would change his ways? If you believe that, you honestly do not know how the mind of a serial killer works. Their urges are stronger than them. They can't control themselves. That's why I said it's better off to be rid of them than to have to deal with future horrors.
I know that our judicial system is flawed. And I also know that innocent people have been sent to prison and even have been killed there, senselessly. However, there's nothing we can do about that. Unless we develop some way to truly see into a person's mind, and figure out, without a shadow of a doubt, that they are responsible for a heinous crime, our judicial system always has a chance of sentencing an innocent man to death.
What if escape is impossible? What if you are cornered, and are facing someone who has a weapon, and is willing to take your life? Would you just wound him, and risk him murdering you nonetheless? Or would you ensure you survival, by killing him instead?

For a second, I thought I was going to laugh. I find it funny how you confused 'killing someone under defense' and 'killing someone under anger'. The first one is that I would try to kill that person no matter what. I don't care if he dies, I need to take care of myself. The person would go after me when he is released from jail if I do kill him. And if this person knocks out, what a perfect opprunity to just smash his head. Violent and gory yes, but guess what, my life isn't gonna be taken away at all.
Now back to vengence. My feelings on the matter has already been done before. Only a few monthes ago, I learned that my cousin died in a riot. Striking me like that, it was hard to think about that. I'm too frustrated to kill these people. Why? Because, it is useless. I don't have the money to fly to Brazil in the first place, and do you think at all that the police won't try to have me arrested.
And if you knew the person's location, don't you think you just call the police? Seems like the matter seems more suiting to do. But I guess anger takes over people's minds and possesses them to do horrible things.
You are right, some murderers don't learn. They're serial killers. Yet not every murderer is a serial killer. So why execute someone for something they could learn in hard time jail? Don't paint the sky with one color, espically when you are dealing with murderers and serial killers. But life sentence is the decision I would make with a serial killer.
Sorry for the gap and the return of ethics in killing.
