    You shoot him, his pain stops.

That's what I'm trying to say. That's cruel and unusual. Life in solitary is a fate worse than death. I know I'd rather die. Klein makes a good point that it actually costs more to kill than to incarcerate, but something tells me his sentence will be handled stunningly swiftly. And that's okay with me, and I'd like to think it's okay with Tsarnaev as well. If he truly believed in what he was doing, he was ready to die two years ago. I don't think we're doing him a favor. I just want it done. Let's all wash our hands of it and heal.
