Volokh: Contrarian on painful capital punishment

Updated with two additional posts, below.

In the days since the Iraq government's bloody punishment and execution of a serial murderer known as the "vampire of the desert," Eugene Volokh has entered into a lengthy blogversation with other bloggers and readers about the merits of capital punishment, even painful capital punishment and retribution.

Whether you support or oppose this practice, I think you'll find valuable ruminations within. Here are the links -- begin at the bottom:

6. And Then There Are These Arguments

8. Something the Iranian Government and I Agree on
