1. Someone who is still a danger to innocent people, even if in jail
Not sure how that would work out,

18. Ding! Ding! Ding!
That's my only criteria - if a person is still a risk to human life even when jailed. I'm thinking people who solicit (on tape) people on the outside, or other inmates, to murder, or those who murder in jail.

I'm thinking Thomas Carpano or guys running prison gangs.

10. Lots of people I don't like.
I don't like MOST people. But "Ultimate Sanction" is sort of not on my list.

Now REVENGE...hurt me bad enough, and I might consider making a list.

I like some stuff Clooney has done. 3 Kings was good. Dusk to Dawn I liked, and Good Night and Good Luck was great in my book.

He's a liberal.

9. You don't like him, so he should be put to death... As Shakespeare would say:
"Treat every man after his deserts and who shall 'scape a whipping?"

28. No one, not even George W. Bush
Killing them ain't going to bring anybody back from the dead, and I think it brings us down to their level as a society.
