Example: I believe that IP is a direct contradiction of nature, sacrificing the advancement of humanity and the world for selfish gain, and therefore is sinful.

Fun fact: it costs more to put someone to death than to keep them in prison for life. This comes from all the court and logistical costs. The death penalty is actually quite expensive.
Another fun fact: innocent people have been put to death, and there are still many innocent people on death row. Look into the Innocence Project to learn more.
These are important facts, but they are a symptom of a bad system, not of the concept itself.
There are so many wrong things in our judicial system.
But what I am saying is that under the right system I think it could work. But to be fair, people say that about communism so maybe I’m just naive.
I don’t see any system where fast-tracked, state-sanctioned murder can ever work.
Not fast tracked, efficient. A proper process, and as long as it takes to be convinced beyond reasonable doubt, just a system where the proper process doesn’t take a billion years and a billion dollars.
Honestly, ever since this execution, I’ve been against any death penalty. There have been way too many innocent people killed from the death penalty.
Not to mention the numerous issues and the moral quandry of legal murder as a state sanctioned form of punishment.
At the end of the day, what’s the ultimate goal of murdering someone on death row? An example for deterrence? Apparently it’s not effective any more than a life sentence and you don’t have the risk of killing someone who was innocent.
