    The fucking death penalty, what a primitive tool some states still allow to be implemented and soon the murderer in chief will wield the power federally to execute once again. Such a disgrace.

    Do something Biden.

    I could totally see Elon having a role and attending federal executions in person. I dunno; he just seems like a guy that would enjoy that.

    Having faced 9 execution dates Richard Glossip now has his conviction thrown out and a retrial ordered. 

    This geezer ate his last meal three times.......and now they are not so sure he got a fair trial. 

    Its this type of thing that massively undermines the death penalty

    You say undermines, I say proves its faults and only furthers the reason not to have it at all.
    It's a hopeless situation...

    I guess I should have been clearer as Im right there with you. What this man has endured is torture.

    I have some history of supporting the death penalty and this is a great example of why I don't anymore. Do some people deserve it? Sure. But the retribution factor (and the way some drool over it) isn't worth it when we'll sometimes make the one mistake that cannot be undone.

    I'm happy Biden commuted all those federal sentences.

    Everyone knows that you can’t kill the rich. But “the other?” Those killers deserve pardons.
