Should we (the U.S.) increase the number executions?

[Associate Justice PiT]

     We should divide the number of current executuionees by infinity & execute that number of people.

[Associate Justice PiT]

the death penalty should be illegal. the state should not be allowed to determine who gets to live or die.

     Indeed. What is the state other than an assembly of private citizens, after all? I doubt anyone would support the notion that a mob should have hegemonic rights over the continued life of any & all of the other people living in the lands it claims as its own

a conglomerate of our most corrupt and power hungry, tied in with the wealthiest of elites, with a monopoly on power and no desire to follow the so-called "supreme law of the land."

     Well that's the station it has assumed, but if you think about it the state is really just a group of people who have assumed authority, which we accept for a variety of reasons.
