Trump rages at Biden for wrecking his plans for executions: ‘Makes no sense’
Human rights experts praised Biden’s decision to commute death row sentences—which baffled death-penalty hawk Trump.
Summary
President Joe Biden commuted the sentences of 37 federal death row inmates to life without parole, sparing all but three convicted of high-profile mass killings.
Biden framed the decision as a moral stance against federal executions, citing his legal background and belief in the dignity of human life.
Donald Trump criticized the move as senseless, vowing to reinstate the death penalty.
Reactions were mixed: some victims’ families condemned Biden, while others supported his decision. Human rights groups praised it as a significant step against capital punishment.

The irony of so many people complaining about barbaric death penalty policies while simultaneously hero-worshipping a murderer….
I guess when you don’t like the victim, all bets are off?
For the record, I believe that the mere concept of most, if not all CEOs to be entirely unnecessary and that the position exists for no other reason than to simply receive a salary-
However, I also don’t believe in vigilantism. If we get to cherry pick who gets to live and who has to die- sans judge and jury… then what exists to defend us against someone that thinks they have the right to end our own lives?
I have very little issues with executing death row inmates. The only reason I'm not 100% for it is because sometimes we fuck up and get the wrong person.
But if they did a horrible crime personally I think a lifetime in a cell is worse than a quick death, so if we really want to punish them we should only do life in prison to maximize suffering.
How about we put you in a cell, and then murder you, and you can tell us which is worse.
I'm assuming you're religious? The more religious a person is the less they seem to value human life.
Eww no I'm not religious.
99% of people in American prisons don't need to be there. Because a humane system would focus on reforming them instead of just punishment.
The people on death row are deemed impossible to reform.
But since the system is based on suffering instead of reform it would make sense to make the unreformable suffer the most, which it's debatable if that's the death penalty or life in a cell.
