Capital punishment's fatal flaw is that it treats people as objects to be toyed with and discarded. . . . One day the Court will outlaw the death penalty. Permanently.

I applaud other actors who do that and I am not ripping on them, but to me, that's a badge of honor if you're fighting this disease.
