| 14 | Mary Martin Colbert | The death penalty is not the answer to violent crime. Restorative justice calls for forgiveness and the opportunity to transform our lives. |

| 16 | Susan S. Russo | Anyone who still doubts that capital punishment should be abolished in Illinois--even after considering Illinois' record of injustice, moratorium and inadequate reform measures--should listen to the recent conversation between Bill Moyers and historian Thomas Cahill. |

| 36 | irvin slate | There are many reasons to abolish the death penalty, e.g., economic (its expensive) humanitarian (it's cruel), jurisprudential (it's unreliable). It's not meted out in an even-handed manner.
We shouldn't kill people. The only justification, if one can call it that, is retribution. We are supposed to be civilized enough to be past that. The other free world nations are. |

| 47 | Steven C. Lindberg | The death penalty is not the deterrent that people thought it to be. It is inhuman and rejected by all enlightened nations. We should do the same. As an Illinois lawyer I am proud to support the ISBA Past Presidents in calling for the end to the death penalty in Illinois. |
