In the #UK... the death penalty has historically failed to get majority support, regardless of the #crime. Only 35% of respondents believe it should be available as a punishment in all cases of #murder, according to YouGov. And in the #US, support for #capital #punishment has steadily declined, from 80% in 1994 to 52% in 2025."

  13. #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.

  17. 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.)

  21. 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.

  24. 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.

  33. 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...

  41. 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
