The Association of Government Attorneys in Capital Litigation (AGACL) opens its 36th annual conference today in Charleston, SC. Its agenda is here. I have the honor of addressing the General Session on Friday afternoon. The subject will go under the broad heading, "Death Penalty Policy."
I'm planning it in three parts -- a description of where I think the country is right now on capital punishment; the most effective answers I have seen over the years to abolitionist arguments; and a call to action in defense of the death penalty.
Any suggestions as to what in particular readers think it might be useful for me to say would be welcome.
