However, punishments designed to be both symbolically severe and applied without compromise are intrinsically immoral; they violate the "eyeforaneye" principle all of the time.
但是那些设计来即为了儆示大众又不折不扣地施行的惩罚则是不道德的,它们永远是违背“以眼还眼”准则的。

ANEYEforaneye, or at any rate a death for a death, is the type of justice that most states still embrace.
要以眼还眼,无论如何得用一命偿还一命,一直是大多数州在司法制裁方面所恪守的金条玉律。

So instead of responding to a rude email with "aneyeforaneye" — sit back, breathe and read this first!
