I'm not stranger to getting down voted for posting a reasonable opinion.
I have a viewpoint and I'm quite passionate about that viewpoint, but I'm just one person. I don't have so much pride as to think my opinion is the only valid opinion, and I'm not going to delude myself into thinking that my opinion is shared among the majority. I just don't have that much hubris.
In this example, if the majority want capital punishment, and I disagree with that, I'm left with two choices: either I can suck it up and move on, like an adult, or I can leave to find people who are more in line with my opinions.
I'm not going to try to invalidate someone else's opinion just because my opinion is different.
