I'm just putting it above imprisonment. I think that if you believe someone needs punished so badly, you should have the conviction to kill them because otherwise you're just making things worse for everyone. The issue at hand is that nobody has conviction anymore. What they have is blind rage and not enough time or resources to figure out where to put that because we're all kept busy by the people farming us and controlling the story. Things like petty theft wouldn't matter if our economic value weren't skimmed by employers so ridiculously.
