    you could start by opening a history book and realize progress is never reached outside of power structures with a credible threat of violence. do you seriously think we should not have executed the rest of the top nazis after ww2? edit: typo

      Yes I think we should not have killed them. What an easy way out for them…

      More so I think, if we’re not fostering a culture of killing again we might get over it completely some days.

      But obviously you guys here don’t like that, feels too good to be full of anger and hate wa? 😅

        Until another group comes around promising to kill all the peace lovers.

        Fine, you only capture and don’t kill the evil killers. Some “learn their lesson”, others only pretend to. If you release them, some will come back with a vengeance. If you keep them imprisoned, you’re treating them like animals/slaves.

          What other group? There are only us humans. I know, delusional 😅 Getting back to the killing… that’s the only part I’m concerned with. So yes, my solution is a civilized penal system. Here, prisoners don’t live like animals or slaves, yet, in my view, they still serve their sentences in a way that constitutes just atonement. So I don’t know what’s the problem with that.

          And again, we’re talking about death here. So we’re dealing with very serious crimes, and I don’t get the impression that repeat violent offenders are walking around free at all. And even if so, there’s a million ways of dealing with this other than simply killing the people!
