It's a topic as old as the hills, should we have a death penalty or should we not. It's a worthy subject for debate, but some people....
"before the Barbarians kill them"
....can't help but reduce it to the level of a nursery school playground. Will you ever grow up ?
"A barbarian (or savage) is someone who is perceived to be either uncivilized or primitive."
I just can't think of any other noun or adjective to describe such barbarity or cruelty sinkov. To incarcerate a person for nigh on 20 years in isolation and then kill them does not inspire the need for debate within me mon ami.
The barbarians are now considering death of a prisoner by firing squad. I'm game for a serious debate, but what's the point?

My favourite justification for this barbarity is that capital punishment acts as a deterrent.
"As of April 1, 2022, there were 2,414 death row inmates in the United States. The number of death row inmates changes frequently with new convictions, appellate decisions overturning conviction or sentence alone, commutations, or deaths (through execution or otherwise)."
Not really a deterrent, is it?
Sydney Silverman, MP for Nelson, was one of the great supporters of abolishing capital punishment. This had been debated for a long time.
One of the drivers was the conviction of Craig and Bentley in, I think, 1952 for the shooting of a Police Officer. This was unheard of then.
One fired the gun. The other shouted «*Let him have it*». The debate for many years was whether or not he was encouraging the other to shoot (and therefore guilty) or encouraging the other to let the Police Officer have the gun. The jury found him guilty and he hanged.
Ignoring the concept of «*unreasonable*» the view became that it is better that a guilty person go free than than an innocent one is put to death.
Speaking of barbaric barbarians...
