Please. It's not the Dems who went left, it's the Republicans who went so far right that Reagan himself wouldn't recognize the party. Your party leader is a convicted felon.


No, he isn’t.

Biden is not rational or principled. He just needs to sit in his chair and go to sleep intil January 20. He is worse every single day. And some of these families do probably feel better knowing that these monsters may one day be executed and Biden just took that away. I am beside myself that he pardoned the cash for kids and so many awful people and this is just bad. Go away. Please.

Biden is so unprincipled that he is single handedly destroying the Democratic Party brand for a generation.

According to him, no one should get the death penalty unless their victims are sympathetic to constituents that he is sensitive to.

Is this the comment where the poster equilibrates the life of an unborn child and a ruthless, convicted terrorist?

"All lives matter"


Which is why I support the death penalty. Someone who murders should have the ultimate penalty.


Sure, as long as you can ensure 100% of the time that the decision was made accurately and without a trace of bias.


PP and I agree. And I wouldn’t have had an issue with Biden’s use of a pardon if he had had particular concerns with one of the cases. But I have a major problem with him commuting cases categorically because he is a catholic who doesn’t believe in the death penalty. He said he would uphold the laws and he isn’t.

Which laws are he not upholding. The law actually allows him to commute death sentences, so he is not violating any laws. He is actually following the laws granted to him by congress.


On a case by case basis. That is the appropriate use of a pardon. Not a blanket commutation because you don’t like the law. Biden’s legacy is tarnished from this.


The Constitution doesn’t agree with you, but that’s ok.

Good. The state should
It have the poster to execute people. It can be improperly utilized AND we know innocent people are killed. Too many mistakes and it’s one that can’t be undone.

This doesn’t mean those people are good people. But prison alone is sufficient.

And the bloodlust on this issue is gross. Ugly. And for those of you pro-life types, its unchristian.

He is.

And he openly bragged about sexually assaulting women on television. That alone disqualifies him for POTUS.

Not my bloodlust. The victims support the death penalty. It would have not been adjudged otherwise. They have the bloodlust. And they were wholly dismissed.

Two things can be correct at the same time

Wonder if Jeffrey Epstein murderer had been caught and sentenced to death if Biden would have also pardoned him at the behest of Bill Clinton and Alan Dershowitz. After all, the murder of Epstein saved them further court time.

It's hilarious that you go there when Trump was his close friend, Barr's dad was his mentor, and Azar was the guy who gave him the sweetheart deal.

It's more hilarious that you are so thick that you do not know that Trump, Barr's dad and Azar are not Democrats and friends of Joe Biden.
