But there is a 'feelings crowd' that would also feel bad if a guilty man like Osama bin Laden was to be executed under the American Justice System, because 'what if he didn't do it? Maybe he was totally innocent after all.'

No that's not what people are thinking.

People are thinking we shouldn't be killing others under any circumstances, even as punishment.

One of the logical justifications for abolishing the death penalty is the people presumed guilty who are not actually guilty, related back again to the misused justice system.

And when proponents of the death penalty have to default to the worst person they can think of to try to justify keeping it, they just expose themselves as someone who wants righteous killing to take place.
