When couples discover they disagree fundamentally on the death penalty

My partner and I have been together for eight years and we're talking about marriage but we discovered we're on completely opposite sides of the death penalty issue and it's making us question what other fundamental values we don't share. We keep having these circular conversations where I cite wrongful conviction statistics and they talk about justice for victims' families and we're both just getting more entrenched.
