Ah!!! Lost me here. I adamantly opposed to violence and the use of
force (though I don't disagree that some folks need to be knocked over
the head on occasion). And I clearly don't honor or recognize a
state's claim that it has a right to murder its citizens.
Here's more on the perversion from Antonin Scalia, US Supreme Court Justice:
This court, has never held that the Constitution forbids the
execution of a convicted defendant who has had a full and
fair trial but is later able to convince a court that he is
‘actually’ innocent.” [1]
I can only help that fucker suffers his own poison.
