I oppose the death penalty. No one has the right to take a single life, let alone the 40,000 people that Brian Robert Thompson murdered in cold blood.

I used to be ok with it in certain circumstances, until I found out how many innocent people get convicted and how many people put to death were exonerated later. I'm against the entire prison system now though. It's modern slavery and the state shouldn't be trusted with that kind of power.

I can support the idea of a death penalty when someone kills multiple people and there's good evidence.

However I can never support the implementation of the death penalty as I believe the state should never have the right tl execute its own citizens. And I believe it cannot be trusted with that authority

I'm okay with the death penalty in cases like treason or insurrection.

When it's clear that they committed the crimes.

In broad daylight.

For everyone to see.

On live television.

With absolutely no doubt that they are guilty.

It's a thin line between making an example or making a martyr of him, so the case will likely perpetually linger in limbo.

Am I the only one to find the phrase "net worth" disgusting? It should be "net wealth" or something.

Is it net worth, or how much money this guy gave Trump behind the scenes?

That was someone with very different eyebrows. The only thing we know about his appearance.

The CEO said mean things about Charlie Kirk.

I agree with you in theory, but I think we should all pretend he's actually innocent

Well hold on. Being convinced of one's innocence isn't how that works. You have to be convinced that the evidence brought forward is sufficient to support the accusations. I have yet to see anything sufficiently convincing.

Taking it from the top, the only legitimate evidence you have to go on must be gathered from the scene of the crime. DNA, gunpowder, fingerprints. That sort of thing. But the only evidence is that they found an Italian in New York? Be so fucking for real. Remember, the backpack was reported to be discarded several times. Law enforcement couldn't even agree on WHERE the final backpack was sourced. And even IF the backpack did belong to Luigi, none of what was inside is proof that he stood where the shooter stood. There is no proof physically connecting him to the point in space where the shooting occurred. That's the only evidence I care about. You need to rationalize the lack of evidence connecting luigi to that physical spot in New York.

The CCTV footage is spotty and inconsistent. That's like LAPD losing a car in a high speed chase, not being able to see the license plate and catching some random guy who drives the same model car several days later.

They found an Italian in New York. That's the only thing I've been convinced of.
