    Well you can disagree, but just know that there isn’t a single human right’s agency that advocates for capital punishment and you will be consider a human rights violator for supporting it.

    I think a choice between life imprisonment and capital punishment is a false dilemma.

      Most human rights agencies were started by “ex” US intelligence members. That’s a true fact btw, really weird fact, but true. That aside no human rights have ever been won nor retained without violence against those withhold and oppressing those rights.

      Ever.

      While we can always acknowledge all enforcement of laws is violence, some violence is not effective enough to ensure the safety of the people. Certainly not all or even most cases, but in a few cases there is no rehabilitation. There is no recovery. There is no chance the individual ever actually sees what they did as wrong.

      And that’s unfortunate. And I would sincerely love to see the utopia in which you dream of, but there would need to be incredible amounts of violence to ever get there, and I don’t think you or other anti-capital punishment advocates have that in you.
