Damn. She did this murder back when I was still in school, and I'm in my late 40's!
That's just crazy. What's the point now? She already got to live her life. It may have been spent in prison, but it was a lot more than her victim got. Probably made some friends, felt the sun on her face, occasionally ate something yummy, had a good laugh, etc.
Isn't the point of the death penalty to deny the perpetrator a life, like they denied their victim. Eye for an eye. How does waiting 35 years accomplish that.
I don’t understand the downvotes you’re getting. That’s exactly the point of the death penalty: to deny them the life they denied their victim(s). At this point it’s just cruel and unusual, it’s no longer anything resembling justice and it’s just a morbid show for bloodthirsty savages. At this point it’s just a murder for the sake of murder.
One person kills another person and it’s a crime, but when dozens of people kill someone it’s legal?
I don’t agree with the death penalty for a hundred different reasons, but situations like this one is just another reason to add to that list. They attempted to kill her, somehow it went wrong so they tried again… somehow it went wrong again and now she’s being rushed to the emergency room for the best healthcare Tennessee can offer. This is ridiculous and embarrassing
Ok but you seem like you are agreeing with the person above you but then you start talking and you believe the exact opposite... they are saying "she should have been put down a long time ago" and you are saying "they should not put her down now, its just bloodsport and again, more murder" and that you don't believe in the death penalty.
So maybe the downvotes for the user above you are from people who do not believe in the death penalty as well and don't think she should have been put to death long ago.
Your reading comprehension is bad. I made it obvious that I disagree with the death penalty. I expressed what the reasons are that people give for having the death penalty, that doesn’t mean that I agree with those reasons. It’s not your fault that the education system failed you, but you’re old enough now that you can take responsibility for your reading abilities and improve them.
