Why do we give a shite about pain for the inmate on death row?


For this particular death row inmate I have no concern. For any that might be innocent, I have a great deal of concern. It's bad enough that their lives are being unfairly taken away. I see no reason to torture them as we do it.

Unfortunately we have no foolproof way of separating innocence from guilt 100% of the time. As a result we have no choice but to trust the legal system to get it right. And as with any Government venture mistakes will happen. That is why even prisoners who are accused of the most heinous crimes still have rights. To protect those who get who get screwed by the system as best as is possible (supposedly anyway)

It's paradoxical that some people dont trust the government to get anything right except in determining a person's guilt or innocence.

This is the part that needs worked on. If we can't 100% garuntee someone is guilty, then they should not be sentenced to death.
