In December, Luigi Mangione was arrested for shooting health insurance executive Brian Thompson. Last week, Trump’s attorney general, Pam Bondi, announced that she was seeking the death penalty. It’s a highly unusual announcement, since Mangione hasn’t even been indicted yet on a federal level. (He has been indicted in Manhattan.) By intervening in this high-profile case, the Trump administration has made clear that it believes that CEOs are especially important people whose deaths need to be swiftly and mercilessly avenged.
So all premeditated murder should be punished by death? What do you mean when you say all human life should be treated equally?
If any are persecuted with the death penalty as an option then it should apply equally and fairly.
You shouldn’t be able to dodge sentences because you are the tankei/anarchist-equivalent to Markiplier internet celebrity status.
That will run into some issues in the long run. If one is willing to carry out a death penalty, they themselves have now murdered and should be subjected to the same fate. If not, then anyone who has murdered a murderer, should be given the rights the executioners get, to avoid those penalties. No issue is cut and dry or black and white. And absolutely, we should be well past death penalties.
Well then that’s easy, just use firing squads and then you won’t know who killed him.
No, anyone who is willing to kill another human, signs up to do so, and is part of a mob who does, is in the same boat.
Womp Womp guess you’ll have to write a letter about it.

Listen, you argued that the death sentence shouldn’t exist or that every executioner should be given trial.
Before that, I argued that the death sentence shouldn’t exist or that celebrities shouldn’t be able to escape charges.
If anything, I think you’re the one who needs to sober up, kid.
Hahaha!
No. Reading comprehension is more than just looking at words.
I stated, as a thought experiment, that if the penalty for murder is death, then all who participate will end up included in that sentencing if there are no differences in, who committed murder, or why.
I then made the statement of my belief, which seems to also be yours, that there should be no death penalty.
If you want someone to just argue with, might I suggest checking out an LLM? Then you won’t have to expose your ignorance to all who can read and comprehend. Whom, may also be tagging your username with words you wouldn’t like, to remember this is person just may be a half-wit, or troll.
Edit: omg 🤣🤣 are you really down voting my replies, like it means something on lemmy? Just 'cause you don’t like to be responded to, or that other people have their own opinions, or what there little dude/dudette?
