Is it more or less acceptable for a soldier to be killed in action than for an innocent person to be executed?

If you believe in one or more deities, then the chances are you believe that an executed innocent has gone to better place, and if you don't, then the chances are you believe the executed innccent no longer exists, so why do they matter any more...so what's the problem?

If you reject CP on the grounds that it is irreversible and cruel, in what way to you envisage years of wrongful maximum security detention less irreversible and less cruel?

Just askin'.....
