Just fucking shoot them, what is with these money wasting assholes?
Don't kill them at all, because at least 4% of them are completely innocent.
An error rate that large is just insane.
When you add in the non-death row cases, that number is actually larger. Because our criminal punishment system needs massive reform. I do not call it a justice system, because there is no justice in it.
Refer to my reply to the other guy, I mentioned this and agree with you.
We should be furthering financing of better investigations into people that go to prison or death row and just shooting the people that do deserve it.
Except no.
We should not give the government the power to kill at all. If you let the government kill people, that power will be abused.
“For social order we need tighter reigns! Incarceration hasn't worked as a deterrent, I say we expand execution to include lesser crimes!” - Chief Judge Griffin, Judge Dredd (1995)
All power is abused because humans are human. Pretending like it's an issue of government and not of human nature is hilarious
It is an issue of human nature.
But the point is, don't give out a power that will be abused. It's that fucking simple.
Do not give the government the power to kill its own citizens, and the government will stop abusing that power. I don't know why this is a hard concept to understand.
