That's quite a leap. Why? We have the death penalty. Or, you just don't know the meaning of "an eye for an eye"? I'll tell you. It means a punishment that fits the crime.
No, that's only one way it's used. More often, it is also used to as a standard for the punishment that fits the crime. In the context of this conversation, it's obvious that that is they way I am using it.
Maybe what's really bothering you is that this is probably the surest sign that the President we have now is an actual Christian man of faith and not some lying, manipulative, ***** grabbing, cop murdering, hatred sowing demagogue like we had before
Supporting a killer who killed his cousin and a police officer? Not a good look!
Here we go again one more post full of president Trump hate. Just seething.......
Being a purposefully illiterate Machiavellian poster is not a good look either, but it's pretty much the only one you have. Expressing my moral opposition to the state engaging in execution is not in any way, shape, or form equate to being an expression of support for those who engage in violent crime against anyone, much less a police officer. My position is that anyone who commits or facilitates the commission of such crimes should be brought to justice. Hopefully Officer Brian Sicknick's family will eventually get the justice they are due when all of those responsible for his death are brought before a court of law.
LOL, sure. No, I’m pretty sure that is not the case. It’s just as I’ve stated. The DA is of very poor quality. The question is, why is he doing things that put people in danger?
I would guess that they have guidelines for applying the death penalty. One would wonder that if this case doesn’t qualify, what would?
I'm pretty sure that is the case. In the final waning weeks of Trump's term in office Mr Pretend evangelical went on a hell bent blood lust spree to execute as many people on death row as possible. Evidently that is not going to be the policy of a true man of faith, Mr Biden. Just what is it exactly that makes DA Gascon of very poor quality? That he is Cuban borne? How is he putting people in danger if he wants to keep this man in custody for the remainder of his life rather than executing him? Do you really think that people like the man that killed this officer stopped to think that they might get the death penalty before they did what they did? There is no evidence whatsoever that the death penalty has any unique deterrent effect on crime. What is unique about it is that people who have not committed the crime they were accused of and convicted of and sentenced to death for, have often been later exonerated.
