Where? I reread this thread and all I see is the same complaining about your personal situation. You only replied one time to that comment, and there was no attempt at justifying anything.
It seems like you suffered significant trauma and it’s affected your worldview heavily. You saw a story about someone being executed despite evidence of their innocence and came in here not to suggest a better path but to say death > imprisonment and keep bringing up your situation. And yeah, that genuinely sucks and we all wish it didn’t happen. But your contribution here is based on your feeling of misery and helplessness which isn’t useful because the man who actually was executed didn’t want it.
The exact comment you replied to. The courts don't operate how they say they do. They don't give you choices. Your defense doesn't matter. The stuff in this news post is just to keep you all busy. You don't know because you see what you're shown.
If you think someone is bad enough to kill, you should kill them yourself and don't drag it out.
This? This says nothing about the proposed solution— which should satisfy you— or policy as a whole. Just personal gripes.
That’s exactly what they did to Marcellus Williams.
Let me guess the next comment: bleak worldview, we only know what school told us, personal gripe.
