"So by your standard nobody that kills is of sound mind and therefore not guilty." No I was replying to your scenarios.
You can quote as many cases as you want. The fact is that absolutely means "Definitely and completely; unquestionably.".
It is impossible to have absolutely no doubt (in legal terms). Which as I said is why we use "beyond reasonable doubt". That is why the judge always takes a lot of time to describe what that means, to the jury.
Even if you see something with your own eyes there is still doubt. This has been proven many times.

I disagree.
it’s an election with no Democrats, in one of the whitest states in the union, where rich candidates pay $35 for your votes. Or, as Republicans call it, their vision for the future.
we want your oil!
where?
i don't see how executing a man because there is no reasonable doubt is gonna help society, neither do i see how executing a man who is no doubt guilty can forward society

Some to return to their families and live good productive lives, never having done anything wrong in the first place.Some of them to murder again.

So, you're still wrong.
I disagree.
This is not a matter of opinion, it is a matter of fact.

It has got us to the state that the taking of another life is just another crime. You would get more years in jail for robbing a train.where?

I view death as punishment only. I don't believe it is a deterrent and I don't care one way or the other if it forwards society or not.
I don't think death is appropriate for all cases, each case is unique and should be taken on its own merits.
Added to my response to your previous comment, I would have no problem being the executioner for some cases but I would for others...which is why I set a high standard of proof.
