Prosecutors to seek death penalty for white supremacist who killed 10 at Buffalo supermarket

The death penalty is a barbaric institution. It always has been, and it always will be. The government says it’s okay to murder this person, so let’s murder him.

I don’t get why that doesn’t shock people’s consciences and sense of basic decency.

Fuck the death penalty, the guy needs to be punished, but the death penalty is barbaric.

The only issue with the death penalty is the potential to execute the innocent. There is no danger of that here. I don’t want to share the planet with this racist prick.

If you kill the man, his suffering is limited. If you lock him away in a supermax for the rest of his long days, his suffering is a thousandfold.

I don't even kill spiders. It's hard to look at that photo and understand, how this young adult even considered doing this. What broke him like that? Maybe, instead of killing him, we can somehow guarantee no new guys like him would happen. Not in a genetic crime bullshit fashion, but in providing psychological services, making regular checks, noticing them and reaching out before they act like that? He's a fucking idiot, but also a guy that fell through many safety nets proving them ineffective.

Let him rot in prison. Abolish capital punishment!

It's a worse punishment to let him rot in prison.

And will that help reduce violent deaths at all?

What is a justified consequence for someone that killed people just going about their normal lives? Do the families impacted by this tragedy have any input?

Give him a job, make him work, and send the proceeds to the families of the victims. At least he will be somewhat useful then.

It's not good to report the number of deaths in headlines without humanizing the victims in some way. It's better to list each individual name in the article itself.

This dude probably thought he was setting a number score that would put him in the spotlight, but he didn't realize he's just another tally for the Executioner.

Out of pure academic curiosity, how is the death penalty part of this under federal jurisdiction?

There are federal crimes that include hate crimes and violation of civil rights, but from what I can tell in the list of federal capital crimes, neither of those appears to me to qualify as subject to the death penalty.

I looked up Derek Chauvin as a base then realized he was never under threat of death penalty.

How old are you?

I don't like the death penalty and how inequally it's applied, but in this case I say we decrease the surplus population.

Rest in piss, asshole.

One death penalty still has a lot of wiggle room given there were ten lives taken. Hope justice is served here.

No civilised society executes it's citizens. A lifetime of reflection is adequate.

Why just kill him? I didn't see the point there.. What about beating him and mutilate his body again and again and then take him to recover and then again and again beat and mutilate until he is old enough to die for natural reasons?.. seems like a better plan to me.

We are all meat popsicles. Either way, I could care less. War, what is it good for?

Well, that's good news for once. Pump the goober full of sodium enditall; he won't be missed.
