  5. #Trump undoubtedly and certifiably has done many bad things, but he didn't invent the death penalty (not that he wouldn't claim to) nor did he introduce it into the American legal system.

  9. RE: mas.to/@brianvastag/1173724618

    Many Americans think it's OK to dispense a little cruel and unusual punishment, just as a treat, as long as the victims are Bad People.
    I would say "What have we become?" if it weren't for the fact that I am fully aware we have always been this.
    It is impossible to carry out the #DeathPenalty humanely. It should be abolished nationwide.
    (On the bright side, U.S. support for the death penalty has gone down by about 30% in the last 30 years.)

  13. I am very much against the #deathpenalty. While I loathe Christa Pike for what she's done and who she is, the state, i.e. Tennessee, has no business committing murder. The whole biblical tooth for a tooth and an eye for an eye justification is bullshit. The bible also says that "And God said, vengeance shall be mine." It's time for religion to die. Thankfully, I am an #atheist.

  16. I can't believe i have to say this, that we still have to say this, but: the death penalty is bad.

    It's stupid, it's cruel, it doesn't work.

    It is vengeance, it is not justice and it is certainly not reparation.

    A society can't fix cruelty with cruelty, and can't prevent killing with killing.

  25. 32 years after the murder, she survives the death penalty. The obvious problem is that it did not work.

    Yet I am pondering 32 years. That's a long time. A very long time. I ain't saying she's not guilty, I am glad I don't have to make such judgements...

    It would have been better if the Tennessee governor had suspended all executions before torturing Christa Pike near to death.

  33. CW: uspol, death penalty

    So when you survive poison injections, they send you into hospital. Doesn't that mean the injections were aggravated assault? #deathpenalty

  35. It's really a shame what happened in the usa.. #deathpenalty is never meant to bring justice, but torture for those sentenced to death and their families.

  37. So, I know about myself, that I could turn vigilante pretty easily. When faced with horrific crimes, I can easily imagine myself climbing on my chaotic good paladin horse and riding off to commit justice. I tell you that story so I can tell you this one: I viscerally understand the desire for the death penalty, but as an ethicist I can say with full conviction, that we, as a country, must not allow any more death sentences.

    We have incompetent people all the way up and down the Justice system. There is no real justice in American law, and as such, we cannot allow the State to murder in our name. Or attempt murder, in this case.
