You on the right don’t see anything barbaric about cheering for a high number of executions, or for allowing a young man to die for being caught without medical insurance? I do.
I’m not really anti-death penalty, but if it does have any effectiveness as a deterrent, it doesn’t take that many executions for it to work. I find it interesting that death penalty cases cost around a million dollars more than the same case as a life-without-parole case. Texas spent over 200 million to kill people, plus whatever they spent on capital cases that didn’t result in an execution, while 1 in 5 children in the state remain uninsured, and more than that go to sub-standard schools.
