@georgetakei They're serious. The people who disagree with them (the "other") are not real humans, and thus do not possess real human lives worth protecting. This is how their predecessors convinced themselves that it was reasonable to murder 17,000,000 people (including 6,000,000 Jews) in World War II.

@georgetakei The ones facing the death penalty should be the felons (starting with FOTUS and working downward from there) who are vandalizing our government, our system of checks and balances, the rule of law, and democracy itself. Including, but not necessarily limited to, all the "good people" FOTUS pardoned after the J6 insurrection.

The pro life party . My ass.

β€˜an eye for an eye’ expresses the principle of reciprocal justice and the earliest known use of the principle appears in the Code of Hammurabi (1750 BC )

This means that the victim receives the estimated value of the injury as compensation. The intention behind the principle was to limit the compensation to the value of the loss.

Oh and btw the Capitol has a portrait in relief of Hammurabi.
