This is a gateway to murdering LGBT+ people with government allowing it.
First, you give child rape the death penalty.
Then you classify LGBT living their lives as themselves and being honest with children about that as “child abuse.”
It’s just a handful more steps before you’re taking kids from LGBT couples and putting them to death.
That’s what this looks like to me anyway, especially paired with Project 2025.
Expand the death penalty, and then further expand it to include people you don’t like, by dumping them into the same category as child abusers.
Nevermind that its always fucking conservatives and religious people who fucking rape kids. It’s never
lupusa drag queen.You Republicans really think you want to start executing sex criminals?
1250 names as of February 2nd.
It’s up to part 52 as of a few days ago.
Because nothing says ‘freedom’ quite like state sanctioned murder
I remember someone on reddit had a very, very long list of Republicans doing something sexual with minors or towards minors (like driving to a school and jacking off). So, can we expect some friendly fire here?
No. Laws are only there to oppress the opposition.
Could they also include decision makers at big companies if their decisions are proven to be criminally negligent, self-serving, and result directly in a large number of deaths? I’m thinking like Boeing people.
Death penalty isn’t necessary at all anymore, as there isn’t any risk to society in keeping them imprisoned. In the past we were sometimes forced to execute because there weren’t viable long term prisons. That’s the only legitimate need for the death penalty to exist in my opinion.
I can’t imagine it works as a deterrent given the psychopathic nature of these crimes.
I suppose it could bring some kind of peace to a victim of aggravated rape, that their rapist had paid the ultimate price so that would be nice. I’m not sure it works that way though or if it’s a healthy coping mechanism.
Overall it feels like it should be a relic of the past.
There’s not enough evidence to prove that it is a deterrent.

However, I would suggest the fact that there are still plenty of murders in the U.S., especially when compared to many countries without capital punishment, shows that it isn’t one that works all that well.

People aren’t thinking about consequences when they commit murder, so it doesn’t really matter how severe they are.
it’s all about the punishment with these people. who gets punished, and how badly
Unless you’re a president!
Republicans playing God. No news.
