Oh no, take the quality content from the paedo site without giving them any traffic… what ever shall we do? *clutches pearls dramatically*

I mean, you or they could just block OP, but that wouldn’t stop them from taking traffic from Reddit. Hell, I block people who post dick pics in spaces not dedicated to dick pics. I realise it won’t stop them from doing that, but it’s not my place to stop them. That’s what moderators are for. I don’t want to be a moderator. (I do run a community, but I haven’t used Lemmy’s moderation tools yet, and do not look forward to having to.) I just want to enjoy my experience here.

Also, some people take up multiple spots. If there weren’t enough spots for everyone, anyone who took more than one should be charged equally with the shooters, for contributing to the situation.

Sure, there are anti-death penalty groups out there, but most guys who are put to death — in fact, I’d say all of them at this point — don’t get the level of scrutiny this case has.

It’s just wild to me that a man can shoot a person in the head, execution style (for example) and only the anti-death penalty crowd really objects to his punishment. But most people generally believe that he deserves to pay with his life. A life for a life. I don’t personally agree with that, but that’s how it goes. Then you get a woman who tortures a teen girl to death, carves her up while she’s still alive, and we’re gonna pump the brakes because she’s female? It’s absolutely a double standard.

I’m of the opinion that nobody should be put to death by the state, that the state should be better than that, but let’s see how many come out of the woodwork for the next condemned man. See if it’s all over the news like this case has been.

It’s sad but world people have as much sympathy for a man on death row? Would they even care to read how bad his childhood was? Most people wouldn’t care. Let’s see if somebody takes up for a condemned man and how much social media attention it gains.

That said, I’m not strictly in favour of the death penalty. No matter what the penalty is, people will commit crimes. But we have to do something. I’m not sure what, though.

Can confirm. My grandmother beat breast cancer, and was killed by a drunk driver.

All for safer streets.
