      Try to expand your stance then. When I mention I’m against the death penalty, I usually preface it with something like “there are absolutely people in the world that deserve to die and the world would be a better place with them gone”. For me a lot of the problem comes from trusting the system which has gotten things horrifically wrong in the past. So you can acknowledge that someone actually guilty of certain crimes should die.

        I don’t think there should be a death penalty, for pretty much the exact same reasons. You can’t un-kill people as necromancy isn’t a thing… yet. However I am not above getting angry and venting by writing a slightly edgy comment.
