I don't actually have any major moral objection the death penalty - my opposition to it is purely practical (false convictions are unacceptably high in our present justice system to warrant killing people - for me, the risk is too great that someone innocent will be killed).
In the case of terrorist activity though, I'm uncertain whether that limitation applies, although the definition of 'terrorist' is a rather slippery one. A group of my friends were warned of partaking in suspected 'terrorist' activity by local police when they were participating in a silent disco. Likewise, I know an art history student who had her camera seized in London by an over zealous police officer who cited the terrorism act as his justification.
The authorities are able to brand pretty much anyone they want as a terrorist.
