(I suppose you mean that it's a method of preventing other people to repeat the
crime committed by the person that was executed.)

First, you ought to be *sure* that this is the most effective method to do what
you say. I personally doubt it, and I'm not the only one. So it does not seem
*beyond any doubt*. For someone who values life above everything, an opinion or
a guess is not enough to execute a man or a woman.
