#HOPE 2023
EDIT: edited out the link to the trash article, sorry for anyone who felt offended, I thought it was obvious from the post text that the intent was to turn around the ridicule point of view of this pathetically right winged “subscription-biased” media outlet, and simply use their mad headline instead as if it was a piece of the past Obama campaign around the HOPE hahstag. I initially left the link for objectivity and context purposes.
What about pedophiles who refuse to rehabilitate and prefer to live as, and openly enjoy being, predatory MAPs?
Life sentence in prison.
The idea that there’s an acceptable number of innocent people being killed by the state on the death row so we’re allowed to sometime get vengeance on someone instead of having them go trough their life in a prison cell is simply horrible.
I don’t want my taxes, that I work hard to pay for, going to fund the free meals and shelter for a piece of shit human refuse that does not deserve to exist.
Please help explain to me why you think I’m wrong here, I am genuinely open for you to present an argument to change my mind.
Is it because you think this hypothetical unrehabilitatable pedophile is still capable of change? Or do you think it’s a harsher punishment for them to continue their live in confinement?
More of your taxes go toward killing people - including innocent people - than feeding and housing lifers. It costs more when all is said and done to carry out an execution.
Don’t pretend this is some principled stance about good financial management. The facts aren’t on your side.
Even if someone refuses to change, the permission of murder in the vague view of justice is wrong. Killing a serial killer doesn’t bring their victims back, killing a rapist doesn’t undo the rape they committed.
In America, our thing is “We’d rather have 8 guilty men walk free than 1 innocent jailed” (supposedly), yet there’s been more than zero people who did not commit any crimes, yet were killed. You can’t undo murder. At least if someone is given life in prison, you can set them free.
Let’s not forget that we’re more prone to give the death penalty to BIPOC inmates, not white.
And it costs more to kill someone, than to house and feed them.
Prison for life? Idk man does it matter given that false CSA claims do happen?
