Death+Penalty+-+Giuliani

="It's a phony issue. To pretend the death penalty is going to end crime in the= =United States is to fool people, to promote public ignorance."=



//"When you commit treason against the United States of America, particularly at a time when the U.S. is in peril of attack and further attack, I believe the death penalty is the appropriate remedy to consider."//

Giuliani favors the death penalty. He advocates the capital punishment for those who "//commit treason against the United States//." He testified in Zacarias Moussaoui's death penalty trial and also fought to have prosecuters place the death penalty upon John Walker Lindh; and American Taliban fighter. He has said: "//the death penalty is justified and an effective deterrent for other people doing the same thing.//"
