It's not a matter of me wanting innocent people being put to death, it is a matter of violent criminals being taken out before they can get out and hurt a truly innocent person once again.
There are to many murders, rapists, child molesters getting out and perpetrating these crimes again.
The fact that violent offenders often repeat the offenses is a real problem. We have a "revolving door" system, mainly due to overcrowding from more minor offenses (eg "posession"). So do we solve overcrowding and early-release standards by killing them all? Can't we prevent repeat offenders from hurting again through longer sentences and by making them fulfill their entire sentences and better prioritization of jail space?
