It was the whole reason for the creation of justice system, and thank the French, otherwise you'd still be chopping heads off for all kinds of offences.
lol, at the risk of another "off topic" warning...
how do the traveling judges of England and the rule of precedence fit into this? Does that predate the French revolution or was it something adopted sort of to parallel what you are talking about?

Again, if you have nothing to say about problems in an IDEALIZED death penalty system, then nothing you say can in any way form a counterpoint to Jello or my post. Theory=/=practice.
what is the purpose of discussing idealized things? technically, religion is perfect when idealized, so is fascism, and slavery...
