Helen Prejean

The important thing is that when you come to understand something you act on it, no matter how small that act is. Eventually it will take you where you need to go.

Allowing our government to kill citizens compromises the deepest moral values upon which this country was conceived: the inviolable dignity of human persons.

If we believe that murder is wrong and not admissible in our society then it has to be wrong for everyone not just individuals but governments as well.
