I don't think we are that close to Saudi Arabia
We have capital punishment in this country if you haven't heard.
Don't most countries have capital punishment?
Typical Russian propaganda from Zerohedge
Ignore all the innocents being killed and look here as the guilty are being killed.

It’s interesting the link says “Close US ally” and then the article title just says “US ally.”

Maybe Tyler Durden had a change of heart after posting.

Edit to add: that is one of the least biased ZH articles I’ve ever seen though. Pretty much just reported the facts. I was expecting them to blame Biden or something.

Uncle Joe is against capital punishment: I doubt he can do much to stop states from killing convicts convicted in state court, but I believe he's halted federal executions: be interesting to see if the Boston Maraton bomber gets his much-deserved final dirt nap: the USSC recently said the trial judge made no errors, so the skids are greased en route to the gallows, or whatever they plan to use to snuff out the spark in that piece of offal.

One place I differ from a lot of libbies: I’m all-for the death penalty. Put ‘em down.

The Dow today is down 3400 for the year.


The Dow Jones is now down 3650 for the year. Rooting for 4,000 by the end of the week. But it's only a correction no worries. Lol
If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose.

I also support the death penalty
But
It has to be an absolutely no doubt case
Circumstances of the case that warrant death as the appropriate punishment
Such as the Boston bomber or say Anders Breivik who isn't even serving life

I don't mind if a case has a lot of conflicting evidence or testimony if they end up going to life sentence instead of a death sentence. But there's people advocating against the death penalty for people clearly guilty who have done things like chop their victims arms off before raping and killing them. I don't get that. They can gas them, electrocute them in the chair, or firing squad AFAIC.
You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really?

Not that you have anything to worry about, Mr. 'I win all the time at online roulette.'

Nice retirement program you've got going there, fueled by pixie dust.
