The system is too focused on punitive justice over actual justice. Executions over bad evidence and faulty testimony should never happen.

The only point of the death penalty is for politicians to appear tough and give morons the illusion of safety.

It does nothing to deter crime and costs too much, oh and we execute innocent people and its racially biased in its application.

Yeah we should get rid of laws altogether because someone could get arrested when they were innocent. Id rather complete chaos than that.

We should have insanely strict gun laws because some innocent child could get shot or school shootings.

Id rather countless other exaggerated examples.....

This is why we shouldn't have a death penalty anymore.

This isn't the first time this has happened either. And if there is even a .000001 percent chance we would execute the wrong person we shouldn't be executing anybody.

So school shootings are a "justified cost" of not having insanely strict gun laws?

I just think we need higher standards for it like video proof. The thing about a lot of old cases is that we are dealing with technology and practices that are laughably basic in comparison to the modern day.

Well considering that the guns used in school shootings were not legally owned by the shooters, what kind of law would you suggest?

It's pretty much entirely the governor's fault. I mean he's why the execution was able to be rushed at least.

I support death penalty but I don't trust our justice system to do it properly.

These days with DNA testing there at least shouldnt be wrongful convictions anymore.

A) You don't consider Lanza and Cruz school shooters?
B) You should ask Lairen since I was asking for clarification on his/her statement

Of course I consider them school shooters. Lanza did not buy the guns, his mom did. Cruz is the only school shooter I know of to have purchased a gun legally before hand.

It's okay, this happened in a state where "ALL HAIL JESUS CHRIST" trumps logic and science, so this DNA test is fake if the religion says this is justified obviously.

There's no valid reason for the death penalty to exist. It isn't cheaper for tax payers. This innocent man can't be brought back.

A) So why did you say guns used in school shootings were not purchased legally?
B) What did Lairen say?

What I said is they were not legally owned by the shooters since almost all shooters have been underage and ineligible to buy guns. What he/she said sounded like sarcasm to me.

A) So Lairen was being sarcastic and *does* believe some gun laws would keep kids from being shot or school shootings? I read his/her statement as being exaggerated but genuine as it was supporting the death penalty even if an innocent person is killed once in a way.
B) You agree that your original statement was inaccurate as Cruz legally purchased the rifle?
C) To answer your original question, I'm not sure what specific law would have helped but feel there is room to look at things like red flag criteria etc. My response/question to Lairen had been to clarify if they were outright opposed as some 2A advocates (LaPierre) have stated school school shootings/ suicides/ kids dying while playing with guns are "just the cost we pay".

This is one reason im anti death penalty, if one innocent person is executed all executions must be stopped and yes I would feel that way if one of my family members was a victim, the government has no right to execute anyone imo

I disagree. The state has the right to do so. However, I echo your first statement. The state cannot in good conscious execute anyone if there is even a slight doubt. It cannot be undone. In this case, a terrible miscarriage of justice led to an innocent man losing his life.
