That's what the mass murderer in Colorado got. Isn't it is society's best interest that he die as soon as possible? The death penalty was indicated in this case. If not, we shouldn't have it. Why do we treat these criminals when they get sick. The whole point is we want them to die as soon as possible. When they get pneumonia or cancer, give them some aspirin and let nature take it's course.

For death to be the sentence handed down by a jury of his peers, it had to be a unanimous vote...
...it wasn't.
Why do you hate a perfect example of the American justice system working exactly the way it's supposed to...
...working exactly, in fact, better than any other justice system secular man has ever known?

The free room, board, and all the sex you can handle for life seems like the mixed message to me.

I have mixed feelings about the death penalty, but in this case, they should light him up. Use the money they would use to keep him safe in prison for the next 40 years or more, to pay for mental health care for people who need it and who haven't went out and killed or maimed a bunch of innocent people.

Some crimes are so over the top its madness to let the killer live, because his lawyers next go to work for his pardon and release, and some silly judge agrees.

We cannot treat the living to abortion.
Let the prison system "adopt" him.
He has a right to life.

It's cheaper to incarcerate than to execute.
Plus, what are the chances that he meets a "natural" violent demise?

I was asking myself the same question. Will he be seen as a dirty rotten son of a bitch or a hero by the other prisoners?
It would be cheaper to put a bullet in his head or a rope around his neck. I am good with that.

Not with our Byzantine system of appeals. A good defense lawyers can string the out for years and years at great cost to the State, this has been proven in numerous studies of the death penalty. Three hots, a cot, and general population is the cost-effective (and more humane) way to go.
If it were just as simple as immediately executing the verdict, then of course, ou would be correct.
But this might take the lives of too many innocents, many of whom are minorities who never received adequate legal representation.
Setting aside the appropriate-ness of the verdict (i.e. death v life w/o parole), why do we treat lifers the way we do? Society is obligated to provide three hots and a cot. Aside from that, the sooner he dies, the better. For the sake of argument, say he develops a brain tumor. Shouldn't the attitude be, "Oh, well. Sucks to be you." Why do we treat their serious diseases? Lots of good people die young, unfortunately. The sooner this one dies the better. Load him up with pain meds and let nature take its course.
And as far as the ridiculous appeals process, c'mon. What could possibly change in this case? He did it. He knew what he was doing. There really is no point in having a death penalty if you don't apply it in this case. He should be hanged. Quick, painless, fool-proof, effective, humane.

Because we are kind and humane, not petty and vengeful.
One could argue that life with no possibility of parole is neither kind nor humane.
I reserve feelings of kindness and mercy for the victims and for all the good people that have right to go to the movies without the thought of getting shot by a random sociopath. Executing this madman would be an expression of kindness to those people.

It is necessary.
You use the word madman and then in the same breath proclaim that executing madmen would deter another madman attack. We've been executing people for some time now and that fact did not deter this madman.
