Gov. Jeff Landry signed into law Tuesday a bill allowing executions by nitrogen gas and electrocution, opening the door for Louisiana to revive capital punishment 14 years after it last used its death chamber.

Calm down. I already said “punishing criminals does not need to be as expensive as it is.”
It’s possible to do it for cheaper, even if we choose not to. You really should take a break.
It is not possible to do it cheaper without murdering even more innocent people. That should be unacceptable for anyone with halfway decent morals.
How many innocent people get the death penalty in the US?
Since the 70s, 1584 people have been executed, of which at least 197 have later been exonerated. So a cool 10%. How high would you like it to go to save money?
Thanks for those statistics.
It’d be better if those people died in prison. We shouldn’t remove imprisonment just because some people are going to be wrongfully-convicted.
I’ll ask you again - how many more innocents would you murder to save some money?
Not as many as I would imprison.
This bears repeating. It’s only cheaper if you’re a fascist unconcerned with due process. So you should really just stop lying or take your Nazi rhetoric elsewhere.
Not really. It can be cheaper while maintaining due process.
I don’t think you’re capable of understanding this, though.
How?
Mitigate the amount of appeals convicts are allowed to have so they can’t abuse the system for decades hoping to find a loophole.
Criminals appealing the death penalty don’t typically do so because they’re innocent, although I don’t expect you to understand or acknowledge this.
How many appeals do they get currently? How many should they get? You said they typically don’t appeal because they are innocent, so what about the atypical cases where they are innocent?
Stop feeding the troll. He has no answers, he’s just here to piss people off.
Don’t tell me what to do, dickcheese. Take the L and go be wrong.
Calm down.
Calm down.
What a fucking troll
Yeah, I don’t know why he keeps attacking me with personal insults.
