Deplorable, who knows if they’ll kill an innocent man next with this stuff.

I'm against the death penalty, but we rarely execute innocent people these days. That is the weakest argument against it that I can think of.

To the left drug dealers are “undocumented pharmacists”. But you know what I mean. If someone’s selling this stuff on the street knowing damn well the effects of has on their “customers” I wouldn’t be opposed to executing them

Pharmacists aren't "drug dealers" except in the most pedantic and literal sense, and the vast majority of fentanyl abuse is with non-pharmaceutical grades of fentanyl. Actiq lollipops and Duragesic patches are not particularly conducive to abuse due to their high price, strict regulation, and delivery methods. (although obviously with the potency of fentanyl, both lollipops and patches are still extremely dangerous)

I'd much prefer more shirtless pics over this type of riveting commentary.

Exactly. A guy got caught in Lawrence, MA with like an ounce of fenranyl. Something very small like that and it could kill the entire population of Concord, NH

Probably not.

Unironically though, if you ever want to post a shirtless selfie rather than make a snarky comment about the libs, my PM box is always open. Wink

The sad part is it is so easy for humans to extend attitudes like the one on the post above me to broader and broader segments of society.

Dehumanization, lack of or removal of empathy, a lust for retribution.  You might justify it with "but they killed someone". 

The very same attitude that led that individual to murder is what leads you to sanction murder.  If you just preclude it with a whole bunch of paperwork, it is right and good.

Whatever.

How about, instead of you claiming that "rarely" executing innocent people these days is a weak argument against the death penalty, you'd realize that executing any innocent people (even if it's just 1) is an immense injustice.

Snowflake Petey want to kill killers to show how much power his small Smiley fiscally conservative Smiley government has.

Feelings matter more over facts in our government, apparently.

I would also say that the death penalty is ineffective, it doesn’t deter crime and life in prison is more punishing. Also when one in twenty five people are found innocent, well, we might as well abolish it.

The Death Penalty is too expensive IMO, Firing Squad or Hanging is much cheaper and much more effective

I agree, but I prefer this method of execution to hanging or the electric chair.

Big Pharma gives lots of money to pro-death penalty pols; let them supply their drugs for more humane executions if we're going to have them.

Abolish the death penalty. It is not just inhuman, it also doesn't prevent crime, is expensive and there always remains a chance for an error that can't be corrected. Even if the error rate is >1%, it is too much.

I agree. These scumbags aren’t worth an expensive chemical cocktail. A rope or a bullet would be better
