BAC Is Right, Slavery In US

Well, if its as vile as murder and rape, why don't we execute them as well?
Because I don't believe execution is consistent with a free and democratic society. Totalitarians execute, with us being the primary exception that helps to illuminate the rule.
 
LOL – is this directed at me because of my mixed feelings yesterday? Needler.

:pke:lol, no, not you specifically. Just anyone who thought it's a good idea or were ambivelent to expanding the states right to excute citizens.

I think that the court was appropriate in its decision.

These people come from a very barbaric place and have a barbaric mindset, one that strips the poor and powerless of their rights. It was unfortunately prevalent amongst my ancestors and even the founders. It's a good thing that we've finally confronted it as a society and done away with it, but I think we as a society still find it all too easy to dehumanize others.
