Death sentence is not playing god, it’s keeping society safe.

@MrAboo Not in cases where innocent people are wrongfully convicted and executed.

@RedBaron Which is why the justice system has to get the facts right the first time around.

@MrAboo But it doesn’t. According to what I read, about 4% of people executed have later been exonerated. That’s actually pretty high when you think about it.
