I lost faith in the death penalty. Its a complete joke . When a 14 year old black child was put into the electric chair in South Carolina. But yet you have white school shooters with mass casualties who don't even have to worry about that ever being a reality for them. Let me ask you this. If anybody in this world deserved the death penalty it would have been Jeffrey Dahmer. Why wasn't he given the death penalty? crimes cannot get any worse than his from rape, murder, to cannibalism. But a 14 year old black child was danger to society?
@AngelUnforgiven While I agree there are too many cases of unjust examples, capital punishment has become more political racism than justice. However using your example, Dylan Roof, the Black church mass shooter, was sentenced to death, as well as other mass shooters, and I believe Dahmer was killed by fellow inmates, so therefore justice still happened.

@NativePortlander1970 But dahmer was not given the death penalty, I wonder why. Just like I wonder why emmitt till's murderers smiled in front of cameras and confessed to the media about his brutal murder, the murder of an innocent child, and yet you could hear crickets chirping. If 2 black men gloated to the media about murdering a little white girl 🤔 hmmm I wonder what would have happened to them? The bottom line is that there's 2 justice systems and the death penalty is a joke.
@AngelUnforgiven I won't dispute your views. I will ask however if there is proof beyond the shadow of a doubt it was a cold blooded murder and the killer shows no remorse in court and/or towards the loved ones and showed no mercy to their victim, would you support it?
