2 people murder a person. = Against the law, against the Bible.
1 person murders a person. = Against the law, against the Bible.
KKK kidnapping and murdering = Against the law, against the Bible.
Government protecting it's citizens by killing a cronic murderer = Not against the law, not against the Bible.

The government is no different from us and this may sound egotistical coming from an 11 yr old but I believe that many politicians aren't very smart, they are just good talkers.

True.

No matter how you look at it, a formal execution is no different than murder, other than the fact that it is set up as a group instead of an individual.

Murder is wrong. VERY wrong. That's why the Bible (and the law) exacts a just punishment. It's set up as a group, that is correct. You can elect leaders (well, for now, anyway) to change the law, then it would be wrong (by law.)

16 yr olds, if they can get capital punishment how are they not mature enough to vote.
