It’s amazing to me how many conservatives who rightly doubt the government’s ability to spend $10 wisely, trust the government to decide to end someone’s life.

Well, this was the result of a trial....I grant the prosecutors may have been corrupt, but the government itself ought not be indcited entirely.

It is not the government that decides — it is twelve people who decide. Imperfect as it is I prefer our system to the others. In regard to this case we don’t know if he was innocent. All we know is he was eligible for a new trial and since the evidence is gone he walks. None of us know the full story here.
