    I don’t think you understood what I meant when I referred to liberal justice systems, because you can’t conceive of any understanding of the word liberal unless it’s in a portmanteau with the word retard.

    The many demonstrable downsides of the death penalty (and lack of any evidenced differential benefits) goes well beyond Louis CK. Congratulations, you just discovered that comedians rehash ancient and serious political and philosophical discussions for laypersons. But you may wish to read the original material.

      Yeah, like I said, I grew up with this subject, so you can save the condescending bullshit. It’s pathetic. Apparently you can’t conceive that others can actually disagree with someone as amazing as you, and you alone, find your intellect to be.

        Give me one tangible, evidenced benefit. Not sure how you grew up with it and are still unable to figure out that your position is entirely supported by emotion.

        You’re not going to insult me by suggesting that I respect my thinking on this topic.

          Deterrence. And unlike most criminal cases, these are people who do indeed have other options and can easily make a choice not to run rape rings for the wealthy, can easily choose not to fuck children, etc.

          Oh, so you don’t respect it either? Cool bro, fuck off now.
