No, I don't think that a jail sentence is morally equivalent to abduction, and I don't think that a DUI is morally equivalent to thievery.

To rephrase... I don't think that the comparison between capital punishment and murder is worth the calories it takes to type, just like a comparison between a speeding ticket and armed robbery.

If the person dying is innocent, the end result is the same. Thoughts?

Also not what I asked.

I'm just pointing clarifying that, in your moral system, capital punishment must be one of the exceptions - it's obviously a form of intentional homicide, so you make an exception, right?

Just be careful with handing out such exceptions!
