I think the death penalty is an example of logic vs emotion.

Or Spock vs. the wild west.

In accusing we lose something when we kill legally or not.

I could not kill someone or want to be connected with legal killing.

It is against a principle that is more sacred to me.

Look!

Americans by and large are large.

We have large sizes in almost everything and very huge people walking across the earth,

So we feel not ashamed of how immense we are since it shows we are also very amazing humans

There is great dignity in being whatever and take that from just me and I and thou must am whom

So,

If we are to be greater there needs to be a show like never before,

With such splendor as to cause big to get bigger

This most amazing creature to plaster in pixel

There is nothing like it or us anywhere

Americans by and large are large.
