    Fucking terrible. People are the worst.

    Also, you really think Don Jr would kill anything that is white?

    Trying to find some levity. Though I wouldn't put it past him. He has already hunted other endangered animals.

    I really don't understand how people don't think about the impact of this. How do they not care at all?

    It's called no empathy. Thinking empathy is weakness. Thinking you have the right to rule over others.

    You can blame Trump for any such syndrome fantasized or real.

    Someone who wants a unique status symbol. I don't claim to understand hatefulness and cruelty to animals.

    This is proof that to me, capital punishment should be a thing.
    These types of people just need to be removed.

    im all for freedom and independence, but there is a line that should be agreed upon by the masses that if the line is drawn, we must take steps to ensure that person never crosses that line again. Period.

    Prison removes culprits from society. Life in prison removes them permanently and is cheaper than the death penalty.

    You've gotta have a trial first unless you want to go back to WWII Germany or Russia. Then, you've got appeals, in the case of a state matter, the appeal goes all the way up to the state Supreme Court.
    I saw one estimate of the death penalty costing $1.8 Million while life in prison cost less than $1 Million. Lawyers are expensive as are all the associated costs of researching such a case.
    No, we're not like China, so far. Give Trump another term and see what happens.

    There is no way im buying it costs more to euthanize someone than it does to room and board them for life.
    Got numbers?
    if you are talking about court costs and all that, because of appeals, that's all beaurocratic bs.

    There are numbers out there that the death penalty is more expensive, often times its because the system can take years and years to complete the process. So you’re paying huge amounts of prison fee’s, lawyer fee’s all that. Im not for the death penalty.

    rivht but see thats all avoidable bs. And the same can happen for a life sentence if the convicted goes through appeals for that sentencing as well.
    To be against the death penalty because one has a belief it is wrong, i understand. But if its because of a cost factor, thats very fixable.

    I will say though i wouldnt dole out capital punishment like candy. It would be very select, clearly premeditated disregard for life. People who do this will kill humans too. They have zero regard for life.
    @TorturedBlazerFan did you check out dont fuck with cats?

    when someone shows this type of disregard for life, it generally goes across the board for all life. This type of person will serve no benefit to society and actually cause it pain in many forms, until they no longer exist. No recovery or help will change this type of person. Not from what ive read and watched.

    Im obviously no psych major. Lol.
