In 2015, Billingsley was sentenced to 30 years in prison, with 16 years suspended, after he pleaded guilty to a first-degree sex offense, court records show.
The Maryland sex offender registry shows he was released from prison in October. The registry classified him in “tier 3,” which includes the most serious charges and requires offenders to register for life.
Do you think you’re the first person that thought of this? Do you really think the justice system is too stupid to say “hey, we should be sure before we use the death penalty”?
No matter what system you build, it will always kill some innocent people, because no system works perfectly. How is that acceptable to you?
I’d rather be innocent and be killed by a murderer than by the state. Killing even more innocent people won’t help.
Oh, we just have to fix the legal system, why didn’t we think of that before?
Or we could delete you and be done with it. Sounds good?
You could if you wanted to but im just saying something and thats not really worth the death penalty, or is it?
So we just have to accept the system as it is and not try to improve it? Oh boo thats also a very unoriginal idea, almost all ideas are unoriginal when it come to punishments.
Not just the legal system but society, we live in a society that really does not care about the people lesser in society, literaly try be a homeless guy and get away with a crime where a rich person can just pay the bond and be out!
Im happy you would rather be killed by a stranger than the state, especially crazy if you were innocent. but, I would argue that the person that killed you, if it was in cold blood, did it with malicious intent had a history of murder, killed you in a mass shooting with no remorse, I would protest the shit out of them being executed rather than spending life in prison. I know you’d probably be apposed to me doing so.
Actually no, I think people that like the death penalty are pretty much murderers in waiting. Why wait until you kill someone innocent?
Where exactly is the improvement when the state kills even more innocent people? Seems to me an improvement would be fewer innocent people put to death.
Ha ha ha that halrious. Because I want people like btk dead, I’m a murderer in waiting, how’d you figure that scooter?
Normal people don’t want to kill innocent people just to kill some people they think deserve death.
Just so you know, I am that first guy. not the actual person but, what he embodies retributivism.
Please just look at this it a debate. https://youtu.be/XltuOU1A8Sk?si=HgX4ZyMDXvSB1WZi
Not interested, thank you.
retributivist, just find out what that means.
I know what retributivism is, and it perfectly fits into what you’ve written so far. Now explain to me: why shouldn’t we be preemptively retributive with people like you?
