[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I didn't even know this was still a thing. https://people.com/man-executed-by-firing-squad-for-first-time-in-us-since-2010-shared-final-plea-11693513

I think once Trump gets word of this, he's going to make this the default death penalty method, on live TV.[/quote]
The comment section of that article is eye-opening. I guess people are really on board with the government having the discretion to be barbaric.[/quote]

What’s barbaric about putting to death someone who killed two innocent people? He chose his own method of execution.

As someone who has had a family member murdered an eye for an eye is ridiculous.  It doesn't bring back my family member.  Life in prison without the possibility of parole is the appropriate sentence.  It is also much cheaper.  Death penalty appeals drag on for decades and cost the taxpayers millions.  A life sentence w/o parole has no automatic appeal.  Also, no innocent person has possibly been murdered by the state.[/quote]
