Fuck him, but fuck the death penalty too. People who seek cognitive closure for other people’s actions have a toe on the Just World Fallacy border. Not cool.
Jail is not pleasant, especially if you are in isolation. In fact, I’d say isolation is far, far more cruel than the death penalty. If it is retribution you seek, having him locked up alone 23 hours a day is far more effective to that end.
This attitude is why we still have the death penalty. “Well, I don’t generally like it, I agree with all your arguments about it, but what if someone really does deserve it?” A lot of people take this position, and it sounds reasonable, but it’s propping up the insitution in states like California at least.

I still don’t want him to get the death penalty. I don’t think him being killed makes anything better.
I’m always saying this, but one of the really hard things about being a parent is knowing that there are men out there who want to do this to a child. Like that’s their greatest desire. My daughter is now 11 so it’s still bad, but when she and her brother a little younger I would just start to lose my shit in Target…
I know, right? It’s so unrealistic for gay people to exist without a reason. I mean, all of the gay people I know serve a narrative purpose in my life.

For me, it’s because no system of conviction is perfect and you can’t undo executing someone, but you can set a prisoner who was wrongly convicted free. Even if a case feels cast iron, you have to allow for the possibility that at some point it might be overturned. Also, it’s not as if life in prison is a bundle of…
The fact that our government has the legal right to kill its citizens has always seemed incredibly fucked up to me, even if said citizens are guilty of terrible crimes. I had the opportunity to tour San Quentin a few years ago, and part of the tour was seeing the chamber where they administer capital punishment at the…
The drugs are different. Pets get better drugs then prisoners.
That’s the problem. There is no “right” way to kill someone.
Oh shit I think Killary took Subby5000 out mid-post y’all.
Read the article next time.
Dude, a Howard Dean scream was once seen as the height of insanity.
I don’t understand how deleting “alienates” his subscribers. If his goal is to purge inactive subscribers, and all current and attentive subscribers have to do is hit the subscribe button on his new page, then what’s the trouble?
deleting doesn’t alienate subs in the least. his fans will follow him to whatever channel he makes in the future. the content, even if deleted off the channel, exists on the internet permanently. honestly i think the whole point was to weed out inactive subs and start over with only active and sincere fans.
Love Kpop but my fav video this year is Genghis Khan by Miike Snow (shoutout to Randilyn for introducing me to it!)
Hot babes! Ripped hunks! That video has something for everyone except music lovers.
