Yes, I've heard that.

Police and courts should buy fentanyl directly from China then. 

They love the death penalty over there, though they prefer shooting the condemned and then charging the family for the cost of the bullet.

Should a civilized society be doing that?  I just don't think so.

This is the issue right? We are talking about people that have done something so awful it tells us they do not belong in a civilized society. We argue should we or whats the most humane way to do the most in-humane act. 



We could always institute caning... crime rate would definitely drop lol.

I knew a woman who was an advocate for death row inmates. Of course, all of them told her they were innocent. That tells me they are fearful of the punishment. There may be an extreme case where the wrong person is convicted. But, how can you let a trial determine your guilt if you truly are innocent? It takes much more than DNA to convict. Anyway, the states that have the death penalty really don't have less convictions. Maybe it is time to do away with it.
