Yes, a firing squad is more humane. Being instantly obliterated by explosives even more so, but that's beside the point. No moral society can have a death penalty and a society that goes from a bloodless, private one by one executioner to a bloody, public one requiring a squad is regressing.

Actually, Americans are just like you. ~20-30% of them genuinely support fascism, as in ~every 🇪🇺 country. You are just more fortunate to have political institutions & a multiparty system that prevent that 20-30% from fully capturing the center-right party, becoming 51%, & controlling the government.

it didn't even occur to me that the government might try to execute someone a second time if they torture the person but fail to kill them during a first botched attempt. truly grotesque and a moral stain upon all involved.

If our Christianity causes kids to go hungry, the sick to go without healthcare, the immigrant to be unwelcome, the needy to be called "parasites," all while billionaires get richer, we've completely disregarded the most basic elements of Jesus' teachings.

ok but also Jesus was a cis male jew who was born in occupied palestine, temporarily raised as an immigrant, and went on to use his privilege to create a safe space for the marginalized, while also challenging colorism, microaggressions, fragility, and systemic oppression i’m only half joking
