      Nope. I already said that what I’m disagreeing with is OP saying that death by hanging is oh so barbaric, when the perpetrator burned people alive. Those victims didn’t have the chance of dying by hanging.

      It’s like saying that I don’t agree with physical punishment for misbehaving kids. Let’s suppose that a kid skins another kid alive, and the father spanks him as punishment. I’ll say “nah, that’s wrong. Take him to a psychiatric center instead.” And if someone says “so barbaric that the kid got spanked instead of getting his ears pulled, which is more common,” I’ll say “bruh, that kid skinned someone alive!”

        Yea, you sympathize and thus justify the secondary action. In this case that would be the death penalty.

          Whatever you say, buddy. My abhorrence towards the death penalty is not up for discussion here, and I’m getting bored already.

          Just rest assured that if you’re ever on death row, and it’s in my power to get you out of it, I will do it unconditionally.

          Furthering this discussion is of no use to me. Have a nice evening.
