Oh well then they should feel completely innocent and no one will suffer from mental health issues. That's why people in the military don't have PTSD, because everyone knows if there's at least 5 people there, you're good.
/S
As opposed to the person who pushes the button to turn on the nitrogen? Or the person who pushes the lethal injection plunger into your veins? Or the person who throws the switch on the electric chair?
We're talking about state sanctioned murder so idk what you could possibly propose that insulates everyone from trauma.
All this because I said I'd take a firing squad by the way if it came down to it. My choice. Just back off dude seriously, idk why you're trying to start a ruckus over this.
Lol oh right. I forgot this is only a place for your opinions. My bad.
You're the one advocating for state sanctioned murder, why would I have to defend it? Lol. There are plenty of options without additional lives being ruined.
At this point I'm convinced you are a bot designed to piss people off to drive engagement up, there's no way anyone can be so intentionally thick and contrarian.
I know it's hard to believe there are people that don't believe in capital punishment, but not everyone is a robot out to get you lol
All this because I flippantly said I'd take a firing squad! I find it easier to believe that you're a bot rather than a human being who made the decision to pounce up my ass over an offhand comment. Take a xanax and chill the fuck out, seriously.
Lol
I asked you to explain yourself and your comment and you lost your mind.
