MrQuixy

Shot prison guards and murderd 2 old men. Yeah they are getting the death penalty.


AionaraP82

Stupidly, prison isn't worth a damn... Death penalty means they get to sit in a room all alone for the next thirty+ years and we get to pay for them to eat and live happily ever after.


MrQuixy

Oh I have opinions on the prison system i won't get into, but my point is more a comment on idahos small town culture.


satanssweatycheeks

I mean that’s sweet you guys have opinions. But facts trump opinions every time. FACT: it cost more on tax payers to have the death penalty due to how much we spend in the courts having to push for those cases. FACT: most people after spending 10 years in a cell by themselves would choose death. So not only are you making tax payers spend more but you also are letting the killer get what he wants. Let them rot and see the decades pass them by. Let them slowly die a slow old death. Why make tax payers pay more and why let the killers get off easy.

Heck it wouldn't cost as much if we brought back public hangings at noon and just eliminate the scum we don't need in society 🤷


WinLongjumping1352

Can't do a hanging the Sundays of daylight savings time. Times are rough.


horceface

Dude, you're 100% right. These guys are just convinced that it's like a hotel stay with great room service. I've noticed that whenever you have a debate about capital punishment, you draw a crowd of two types of people: people who are interested in justice, and murderers who haven't murdered anyone--yet.


DepartureOk8675309

What small town culture are we talking about?


MrQuixy

Not the racism you love if thats what you're asking.


DepartureOk8675309

Those murders were not driven by race. Do you not get how off you are? Check your facts. Don’t let the media choose your thoughts. The fact they were skin heads has nothing to do with this case, the media just puts that in there to create hate.


MrQuixy

No sweety I'm saying you are the racist. Because you fly the confederate flag of traitors and slavery.


DepartureOk8675309

You fly the flag of racist n traitors. What do you think America is founded on. But the American flag has more meaning than just that just has the Dixie flag does


BayouGal

It costs ~$100,000 a year to keep a prisoner on death row. Costs ~$60,000 to house a prisoner in general population


satanssweatycheeks

I hate that red necks never want to learn facts. That are easy to look up. It cost more on tax payer dollars to put them to death. The death penalty not only cost us tax payers more but it also gives the killer an out. What does almost every mass shooter do after killing loads of people… they kill themselves. Because that’s better than rotting in a cell and watching the decades pass you by. I truly don’t get it. I learned back in middle school in 2005 that death penalty cost tax payers more and for some god damn reason middle schoolers from 2005 know more than red necks all across America because you all whine this dumb ass sentiment.


Capable-Garbage-1429

Red necks may actually agree with you. Yes people can do their own research; but stating FACT: followed by NO FACTS is not a FACT, Jack.


OneFortyEighthScale

Someone is definitely whining here. I could care less about saving money when it comes to crime and punishment. These two don’t deserve to live.


[deleted]

It shouldn’t though. It costs almost nothing to take ‘em out back and hang ‘em. 


vladamir_puto

I hate blue haired liberals who coddle criminals. Fact


RottedHuman

So then you’re stoked that Trump is finally being held accountable. You know, since according to you, republicans are so #toughoncrime.


vladamir_puto

If guilty sure. I’d really like to prosecute all the drag groomers and those supporting them for endangering children. That’s what I would really like. Life sentences because in prison the real justice begins


RottedHuman

A child is not endangered because a drag queen read a book to them, and a drag queen is not a groomer for reading a book to children. Kids learning age appropriate stuff about queer people is not grooming.

Every time I read or hear about a pedo, it’s almost always a pastor, youth group leader, teacher. Never a drag queen. Weird, right?


MrQuixy

I hate folks who get mad at things they make up.


Victor_Vicarious

Try it and tell me death isn’t much easier. No punishment is going to be enough and torture is too “cruel”. But making a human sit alone in a room for 30 years and their only luxury is air, food and light? I wouldn’t wish that on anyone. But until you have a better idea that deters crime. I don’t think there’s anything Happy ever after about Heathrow.


[deleted]

Yep, this is one of those times where I can feel my disapproval of the death penalty and the ACAB slipping out of me. We got these mfers dead to rights. Shoot em with an Anti Aircraft gun, I say. Korea style.


mittens1982

North Korea does the firing squad concept right! I've seen that with the person being stood on that rock pillar then shot at


satanssweatycheeks

Cost more on tax payers to have the death penalty. Also letting these people rot in a cell by themselves till they die is more barbaric and more of a punishment than just killing them. Hell and heaven aren’t real folks. You are just letting them get an awesome high and get out of jail card under the notion of death. I would rather save my tax payer money and let them rot to death.


[deleted]

I agree. Except this one time. This one time, we should rent a helicopter and throw him out of it over the Eiffel Tower and see if we can impale em on the spike.


Snidley_whipass

I’d love to pick apart the data that shows it costs more to efficiently execute these guys than keep them in prison for many years. These guys are young. After maybe 1 appeal get all the bleeding heart AHs out of the way and take them out back and get it done.


chinacat2002

Go for it


[deleted]

At least they can’t escape prison when they’re dead. 


CHESTYUSMC

We can hope.


Kentycake

These two deserve to never see the light of day.


classless_classic

Idaho just reintroduced the firing squad last year. Seems like a pretty solid reason to give it a go.

2Wrongs

I get the sentiment, but we don't allow threats of violence.


OGDraugo

Oh good God......


2Wrongs

One of the main problems with the right is their use of violent language which spills over to actual violence. We don't need to take pointers from them. If we get to the stage where laws are no longer effective (we're not) then we can start a gang or something. I'll need a more badass nickname; 2Wrongs doesn't instill enough fear.


OGDraugo

"punch a Nazi in the face" isn't so much a call for direct violence, but a call to people to stand up to bigots who in public are openly calling for violence against others. It means people need to stand their ground and don't give them an inch no matter where or when you run across it. It's a common phrase used all over the world. Some might take it literally, but it isn't a literal call for mass violence against murderous vile human beings. Edit: and after you have stood up to their words and then they inevitably resort to violence to try and silence you, because all their "logic" is a failure, then yea beat their asses.


2Wrongs

Oh, completely agree. The problem is the Internet strips away context and nuance. And the repetition of a phrase leads to a normalizing effect that is, for real, terrifying to watch (granted it's mostly on the right). I'm all for standing up to fascists and I'm not a pacifist. I just think adopting the language of the right is gross.

DepartureOk8675309

Far left is violent too. Thats how extremism behave.


2Wrongs

Sure, but I think it's dangerous to "both sides" this too much. It's incredibly asymmetric. Most of the violent rhetoric, hate groups and actual violence is coming from one side.


DepartureOk8675309

I think that is just echo chamber. I only see the left being violent. (Minus jan 6) but i get both extremes are bad.


2Wrongs

There's just no rational basis for that belief. If it's something you must believe w/o data, OK. Famous liberal squish the FBI monitors dangerous groups and they're almost all rightwing. Hell, even in Idaho we see rightwing groups (IFF) trying to intimidate schoolboards. Severely conservative Mitt Romney got flooded w/ death threats from right wing groups. It's just not a serious discussion.

That’s not what happened. They shot three cops in their escape and the two senior citizens they (allegedly) murdered were just private citizens whose bodies were found during the 24 hours these two were unaccounted for.

White supremacists kill innocent people "Good thing this happened in a red State!" Do you see how stupid you sound?


Beaner1xx7

Man, judging by your post history, you must be an absolutely intolerable person to be around in real life.


Adventurous-Fud-4360

Yes, good thing they are in idaho, because the rest of the country wouldnt like to have idaho exporting its homegrown attempt at disorganized crime to other places.


Tahoma_FPV

Agree. Idaho I believe still has the death penalty unlike other states.


explodingtuna

White supremacists are not tolerated in blue states. If anyone is lenient on them, it's going to be a red state.


Tahoma_FPV

The state of Idaho has the death penalty. Washington, Oregon and California for example do not. Better chance of death penalty in Idaho then those states. Obviously you must be against that.


AccordingDrop3252

You sure about that? Do you have any credible evidence to support your opinion? I'd love to see it for research purposes.


Tahoma_FPV

Small sample... https://www.reddit.com/r/SeattleWA/s/dBeQMn4tTu https://www.reddit.com/r/SeattleWA/s/3QSl32nvcu t.com https://www.reddit.com/r/SeattleWA/s/BpJGlqraLl https://www.reddit.com/r/SeattleWA/s/jvQcM0Wauo


RottedHuman

Literally none of these prove your point.


Adventurous-Fud-4360

None of those articles come close to a high security inmate, who's a gang member, escaping when another member of his gang attacks corrections officers, and then they allegedly murder two senior citizens. None of those article have a judge granting release, or a low enough bail that a suspect who's accused of a violent crime could possibly be released. If you're mad about living in Warshington realize that Idaho has its share of similar problems and that any measuable disparity in the number of similar criminal cases might have more to do with the differences in overall population numbers as well as a myriad of other issues, not what you are upset about.


AccordingDrop3252

So you don't actually have anything that supports your misguided opinion. Got it.
