“How about it is a 100% effective deterrent”
Murder stopped overnight in Missouri?
How about 100% effective actually meaning 100% effective?
I appreciate the earth is round content while completely ignoring that it doesn’t deter society at large in the slightest.
But hey the dead guy is deterred!
It insures life without parole plea agreements. Whereas in blue states the same murderers plea to life with parole and eventually freed. In that regard it is 100% effective.
“But hey the dead guy is deterred!”
“Murder stopped overnight in Missouri?” YES. The chance this fiend will kill again is now 0%. 100% deterred.
The “no deterrence” argument is the cudgel that LIBERALS use to eliminate the death penalty altogether.
Could you Guarantee this killer would never murder a couple and rape a dead corpse if he lived? Of course not.
I can 100% GUARANTEE with his execution that he will NEVER do it again.
COMPLETELY effective deterrence.
