If Putin gets captured and deposed from power after a coup or military invasion from NATO, would you support giving him the death sentence for all of the crimes against humanity he’s committed?

In the very unlikely scenario that Putin does get deposed and captured, I hope that the Dems are way to the right of Atlas Dems on this issue. Imagine how easy of a layup it would be for the GOP if a faction of Dems was protesting the execution of Putin

I oppose the death penalty but make an exception for war criminals, same way I would for the Nuremberg Trials.
Why should serial killers like Jeffrey Dahmer get a second chance, but not Putin? Sure Putin has caused more damage than Dahmer, but that’s because he’s in a major position of power. Putin is a horrible person, but none of his actions are quite as morally depraved as Dahmer, who murdered and cannibalized dozens of people. I understand that your biggest reason for opposing the death penalty is because there’s a chance the person is innocent, but with cases like Putin and Dahmer, where there guilt is undeniable and their actions are reprehensible enough to justify a death sentence, there is no logical reason to not execute them.

I think that you should not only carve out an exception for war criminals, but also for mass murderers whose guilt is undeniable
