The confounding variable in your test is this: people may simply be detached from the argument.

As bad as that may be, it isn't a sign of violent intentions.

I don't quite understand what you're saying.

There are a lot of people who aren't shy about supporting the death penalty simply because they want suffering and death. There are others who don't care what's happening in the world, give in to peer pressure, or honestly believe executions have practical value. Those aren't the same problem as simply cruelty.

It's not cruelty, it's a service to society and the victims.
