I oppose the death penalty because I don’t want the government to have the power to execute people.
Any other reason you have for or against, I don’t fucking care. If it’s a power you wouldn’t trust in the hands of your political rivals, you shouldn’t trust it in the hands of the people you support.
We are indeed past the point where material scarcity is a thing. Feel like keeping people alive in American prison is worse than killing them so? If we wanna “punish” them we shouldn’t be killing em. With how often pedos get diddled themselves in prison once word spreads of their crimes, seems like karma.
The issue is that we execute a LOT of possibly innocent people. Unlike life imprisonment, you cannot “make it right” if it turns out you accidentally killed the wrong guy in your commission of justice.
I have said it before and I will say it again.
