The state can't be trusted to execute the right people. Cops lie. Juries are a joke. There's an easy way to reduce the amount of money spent on prisons............start decriminalizing no-victim non violent offences.
you left out career-stuffing, political careerist prosecutors, DAs, conspiring with cops.
decriminalize mj completely, take it off the DEA schedule, treat like the much more dangerous, sickening alcohol and tobacco.
But America can't do smart, civilized stuff any more. It only protects and adds the stupid (because somebody gets paid). And of course the Repugs and tea baggers obstruct EVERYTHING except what the VRWC/1%/BigCorp pays them to do.
Look up the definition of opportunity cost. Just because someone is salaried doesn't mean you can take the cost out of the equation. And you think the public defender is the only cost to the state for conducting a trial? Are you kidding? You can't be this stupid.
I don't support the death penalty because it's more expensive
Sure buddy, sure.
It's reason #2 for me, killa.
Sure buddy, sure.
This is pretty ignorant. Most states have automatic appeals procedures in death penalty cases. And assuming zero sum accounting with no proof is pretty stupid as well.
Good job, fatty.
Nice attempt to marginalize the compe ion with wishful thinking. You do WC proud with these mental gymnastics of horse .
You do boutons proud with your pompous ignorance. Opportunity cost? Yeah I guess that attorney could be plunging toilets instead of writing briefs.
You do no one proud with stupid takes like that. Oh noes he called him boutons!
are you actually going to stand by your completely ignorant statement that the only cost to the state for a capital punishment trial is the fee to the public defender?
Your reading comprehension sucks. I made no such claim.
Comparing cost of death penalty trials to trials that plead out to avoid the death penalty is juvenile logic. The incentive to plea is gone without it.
bullet is a lot cheaper
What was the point of you looking up the max a court appointed defense attorney in Bexar County can get for a death penalty case is $15,000?
ITT: cuck logic obliterated
You complained about it being so expensive yet here you are supporting exactly what makes the death penalty so expensive. I don't get it.
I think we should just execute all who committed first degree murder. Use our jails for prisoners more likely to be rehabilitated.
I'm not complaining that the death penalty is more expensive. Just stating that it is.
are you for appeals or not? You can't have it both ways.
so you don't think that people should be put in jail for life
Our criminal justice system doesn't rehabilitate anything. It is well known to increase recidivism and severity of criminal activities from participants. The death penalty is not an effective deterrent either. It is punitive for the sake of being punitive and little more.
If they are to never to return to society, then kill them.
Period!
Even if we accept that as the truth, what's wrong with it?
So what's the max time you think we should have criminals be in jail? How many years?
Because we might end up executing innocent people
