I took this subject to one extreme earlier and we ended up with what I think is a valid position: murderers have no right to their lives. And you agree. Now let's look at the other end of the scale.
Did you NEVER steal ANYTHING when you were a kid? Should you have been killed? Should your child, or... a nephew or niece, aunt or uncle, grandparent? Friend? be killed for stealing a piece of gum from someone?
Is there a level of thievery low enough, or a personal relationship between you and the thief so important, that you do not think the thief should be killed?
No, I did not. I cannot speak about any family as I do not know of any that stole. Most people are shocked to learn that in my 43 years of life, I have never even had a drink of alcohol. If you want to live your life as a decent person, you do not take what is not yours, period.
