wrong. you're talking about SENTENCING rates, not actual crime rates, and if history has taught us anything, those aren't even remotely the same - especially not in your joke of a 'justice' system...


It is simply wrong to imply that blacks do not commit murder at a significantly higher rate per capita than whites in the United States.

Whites commit 8x less murder, so there is that statistic

Blacks have been committing anti-white hate crimes for fifty years and noone seems to care


No one. Noone is not a fucking word. God I hate that fucking non-word and how often it pops up.

While I don't think it's inherently immoral for the state to put people to death, I'm opposed to the death penalty.

After a quick search i came up with adam moss, a white guy who murdered 7 people in iowa, he plead guilty and got life in prison.

Shawn Bentler is a convicted mass murderer from Bonaparte, Iowa. He murdered his parents and three sisters, it was claimed, to inherit his family's fortune. He was consequently sentenced to four concurrent life sentences and a consecutive life sentence.

And another one.
God damn being black adds a lot to a sentence in iowa.


The crime was committed in Texas. Capital punishment is outlawed in Iowa

Went back and read it again, you are correct, this was not very clear in the article.

Deterrence is only one of the things that our criminal justice system hopes to accomplish. While the death penalty doesn't hit on 3/4 I'd say it certainly checks the retribution box.

People dont understand that life is the cost measured in all punishments. When you tax someone 50% of their income, you are removing all the time that they worked for that income from their life.

Why would you draw an arbitrary line at capital punishment? All punishments are irreversible.

The critics only care about their own emotional comfort, living in a modern sheltered world in which death doesnt exist.
