Trump wants a few executions while he's still in office...

[Heyo]

Just more proof to me that the Catholic Church does not speak for God.

Yep. Pansies, just like the Lutherans and Anglicans and *shudder*Jehovah's Witnesses. We know what god is like from Ezekiel 25:17.

Assuming 17 executions, with an average age of 52 years at time of execution, and an average life expectancy of 78 years if not executed, therefore a projected 26 years of incarceration costs saved per executed prisoner, at an average cost of $40,000 per year per prisoner (currently $37,000) we will realize a savings of about $17,000,000. Divided by a U.S. population of circa 350,000,000 means the average American will save roughly a nickel.

Apparently some lives aren’t worth a plug nickel.

So, it's all about money?

Odd then, that every prior contestant, on apparently winning the election, but before the EC had met, has been called President Elect. And the loser could have legally challenged at any time, then, too.

Did you object to all of those? Or only just this one time out of a nasty fit of pique?

Were they challenged though? If the other candidate challenges and claims evidence of widespread fraud - like Trump has - I would object to the MSM ignoring that and announcing a winner before the Electoral Collage met.

Good thing we don't rely on wizards to establish law.

Why should I want to strengthen the power of the state over its citizens?

Trump says "widespread fraud." His lawyers say "widespread fraud." Then, when they get in front of a judge in court, to a person they say, "no, you're Honor, we are not alleging fraud."

Know why? Because they have no evidence at all, and if a lawyer lies to a judge, he/she can be disbarred.

So claims be damned -- bring on the evidence. And so far? Not even a hint of it.

Get over it, it's over.

You are correct, we don't.

But you completely avoided answering my point, didn't you?

Depending on how you treat others - you can lose your right to life.

The Constitution disagrees with you. They have time to build their cases. Governors are demanding audits. It isn't over. No President-Elect Biden.

I believe I addressed your point just fine.

When people make certain decisions they can forfeit their right to live.

We live in reality - not fantasy wizard land.

And - by the way - Gandalf killed a bunch of people in those books.
