Because civilized societies don’t execute people. Even the ones who think execution is ethical.
Right, but we're talking about America
You may think a country should pay to house and feed a person who’s aim was to destroy it, but I don’t.
Execution or exile. Pick one.
Probably exile then, execution is really expensive these days
As long as they don’t exist in this country, I don’t care. Personally, I’d launch them into the sun, but that’s me.
I suppose it fits with the punishment model of the American justice system, rather than the rehabilitative one in functional countries.
Rehabilitative…..
ROFL! MAGA doesn’t rehabilitate.
Not if all you want to do is see them suffer, and interact that way :)
It’s what they deserve. No one chose this for them, they chose to turn on their own. We tried playing nice, and this is where it got us.
No more.
History is fool of extreme measure to right wrongs, and MAGA is about as wrong as it can get. If you think this is extremist views- remember that Extremism is how America won its freedom- so don’t try playing the sympathetic humanist bullshit here, because that time is LONG past.
