    They can spend decades on death row going through appeals. I would be content with him being in jail knowing the day of his execution. It’s not going to happen but that does seem like a fitting end

      you’re aware that america is one of the few countries that actually executes people? if you’re anti facist you should also be anti execution

        I’m aware. What’s your point in this entirely theoretical situation?

        if you’re anti facist you should also be anti execution

        Uh no? What? Those aren’t contradicting beliefs. What a weird false statement.

        I generally am against capital punishment. This would be an exception

          executing people for political reasons or crimes is facism, no exceptions

              just because they’re a bad person doesn’t mean it’s ok to kill them

                And the state executing a convicted criminal doesn’t mean it’s an inherently fascist action. Perhaps you could make the argument if you’re an anarchist or coming at it from that angle, but I’d disagree.

                  then explain to me why America is one of the few “democratic” countries that still does executions?

                That’s entirely you’re opinion. Ironically a little fascist to tell me I can’t have my own lol. I think it’s a very good thing when a mass killer is stopped even if it costs them their life. You can have your opinion it doesn’t make it any more correct than mine

                  you are allowed to have different opinions I’m just saying i don’t agree with killing people for whatever reason

                  a mass killer can also be stopped by putting them in jail, and even better if they get therapy so they can rejoin society as a better person

                    Literally Hitler was put in jail. It didn’t stop him. You’re welcome to your opinion but wanting fascist dead is pretty anti fascist. Wanting them in jail is too

        I am against execution as well, but I believe treason is still a hanging offense, and he’s obviously treasonous.
