i am against the death penalty. this is not a very good example of why the death penalty is bad, though.
@GirthyChode @arh no, neither of those things are fair, this is a violent and insane position to take. rage and vengeance has no place in civilization. murdering someone because they murdered is not something civilized people do.
@GirthyChode @arh i mean it's a very simple philosophical matter - executing someone for any reason violates the NAP.
