I don’t disagree, but also I think the death penalty is too merciful. This guy should live forever, watching the world go by without him or his ignorance. He should be forced to watch home movies and social media from the families of the people he killed. Watch them mourn, and how they find hope and love in a world where he also exists.
He should live long enough to learn that his life is meaningless, his actions, while extremely harmful, will be forgotten to history as just another violent, murderous bigot. He should realize that from inside a 10x10 room, and then he should live another 50 years with that knowledge.
The state shouldn’t kill people at all. It isn’t a deterrent, it doesn’t cost less money, it doesn’t increase justice, and sometimes we get it wrong. There isn’t a good reason for the death penalty to exist, and plenty of reasons it shouldn’t.
Hmm, I am not sure torture is the point of a justice or legal system. We have the death penalty as a deterrent for violent crime, it’s not meant to be punishment. That said, even the punishment isn’t meant to be torture. You shouldn’t become the cruelty you aim to reduce in society.
getting killed because of your skin tone when going to shop at the grocery store is barbaric. i’m not trying to throw a zinger here, but we have to strongly address both sides of the situation.
Fuck the death penalty, the guy needs to be punished, but the death penalty is barbaric.

Please, that would make that racist prick feel pride, not shame.

The death penalty is not a deterrent for violent crime, and life is not torture.
Not just barbaric, but also more expensive than life in prison. There’s also all of those cases where an innocent person is killed.
Except for pedophiles!
And Gypsies!
…what
It’s making fun of people who think the death penalty shouldn’t exist except for…
Either you think we should have it or we shouldn’t. Allowing it means it can be used against so-called undesirables.

“an eye for an eye makes the whole world blind”
I am not excusing his actions, I disagree with the notion that killing him is an acceptable response
