I'm pro death penalty, but I'd vote to abolish California's death penalty.  As implemented in this country, the death penalty is an expensive version of Russian roulette that takes too long from commission of the crime to actual execution of sentence to be a useful penalty.  Perhaps if Gregg v. Georgia had not struck down mandatory death sentences for certain crimes, the death penalty might be viable in this country, but it did strike so it is not viable.
