LETTERS: DEATH PENALTY IS JUSTICE

To the editor:

In reading the article on the American Bar Association's wanting to stop the death penalty, at least 119 of their members had the common sense to know the death penalty is needed to deter some murders. At least it is justice to the families of the murder victims.

I take my hat off to Morley Swingle for canceling his membership in the ABA and asking for the return of his dues. Here's hoping other members will do the same.
