The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Biden has a moratorium on the death penalty.

Biden is mixing his personal faith into his executive actions, which I thought was Republican territory.
All these people were convicted of killing others. They should be eliminated so the rest of us can be safer. What is the point in spending taxpayer money to keep them healthy for 50 more years?

Even people that the Innocence Project gets off the death row are often free because of some point of law, not because they didn't do the crime. I understand why the society works that way, laws are the best approximation we have for true justice. Bit in Biden's case there was not even a point of law. He is letting the Pope rule America.
