I don't think any capitalist bloodsucker is going to kill himself and/or his
fellow leeches or not depending on whether I say its OK. I will admit, though,
that I consider one of my main purposes to be to contribute to the creation of
a political culture in which at least some of the victims of capitalist
predation (andd witnesses to such predation) will consider homicide more often
and suicide less often than they do now.

Killing murderous capitalist gangsters is not capital punishment unless you
have the alternative of holding them as prisoners while rehabilitating them.
And, BTW, I'm not joking.
