We’ve become a Banana Republic. Unable to execute justice while our society collapses under the weight of our national sins.

Odds are some liberal judge would have entertained an Equal Protection case claiming that since the state had now abolished the death penalty those 4 were being treated “unfairly”.
To: AEMILIUS PAULUS
Do you have a source for that quote?

Go research Nietzsche’s works. I can’t give an immediate citation and I’m too lazy to go through his books. I simply remember it. In my opinion Nietzsche was one of the greatest historians of the nineteenth century. He is a hard read by reason of his style of writing. As a philosopher I don’t know as his reputation is not too good among the practitioners of the craft.

It makes no difference what the public good is,what about the families of their victims?What about closure for them.

Thanks. With Nietzsche the translation seems to matter. There was a scholar in the 1960’s whose name escapes me whom I follow. He wrote the article on Nietzsche for the 1960’s version of the Encyclopedia of Philosophy.

It’s such a great quote -— the depth of its sharpness.
Thank you for recalling it and posting it.

Now that I think about it the Nietzsche translator that I follow may be named Walter Kaufman.

To hell with the laws, to hell with the citizens, to hell with the courts, to hell with the families.
This speck has decided that ‘he’ and ‘he only’ has the wisdom and judgement determine what punishment should be exacted.
Disgraceful is right.

I would urge everyone to read Nietzsche as an Historian and social critic. He explicated the past in an outstanding summary form and foretold the future brilliantly. The philosopher of history Spengler based a lot of his book “Decline of The West” on Nietzsche’s works.
