    A lot of green box people say they’re against the death penalty until they get mad at someone. I’m actually against it though so I agree with the tweet.

    Edit: Not sure if the downvotes are coming from all the red box people ruining this platform who are pro death penalty or the green box people who think I’m against them.

            So let’s just be clear here. You’re saying that everyone who opposes the death penalty is terrible? How did you come up with that? What reason would you have for killing a rapist? How is there a positive outcome from that?

              You’re certainly hot about those strawmen and that’s a particularly dumb way to promote rape apologia. Now go read what I said again. Slowly this time.

              What reason would you have for killing a rapist? How is there a positive outcome from that?

              Retards like you are why Tylenol was invented. 🤦

                If you think saying you shouldn’t murder criminals is apologism for crime then you’re more interested in vengeance than justice. There’s times when self defense would require it but this should not be the default.

                  If you think a rape victim’s unilateral right to guarantee their safety, liberty and happiness is supporting vengeance over justice, then I’ll take it. No one who respects human rights will respect a paradigm that protects rapists while ignoring the reality of the situation and prioritizing the status quo over human lives.

                  Imagine being more afraid of vengeance than of mass rape. Jesus Christ, you apologists are depraved.

                    This is you talking past people again to push your uncharitable assumptions of my thoughts.

                    If it is necessary to end an immediate threat, then it’s okay. If you hunt someone down later that’s the vengeance and retribution I’m referring to.

                    I don’t want to live in a world where anyone with a deep enough grudge feels justified mowing down the object of their ire. Plenty of stories have explored this issue with revenge, recently it was The Last of Us 2 and I thought they did a pretty good job of showing what you do to yourself when you give into violent revenge fantasies.

                    It’s very disappointing that you’re so ideologically up your own ass that you can’t have a reasonable discussion with anyone. Automatically assuming the worst so you can rant about how depraved everyone but you is. Look in the mirror, get some self awareness, and go to therapy.

                I smell projection. Your comments are basically non sequiturs. I’m also not sure you understand how to use Tylenol.

                  You only smell your own shit you get off on inhaling after drinking the tears of rape victims.

                  My comments are morally correct and in keeping with the concept of natural rights, and that scares you because it conflicts with your own ideas of social and moral progress. Indeed, all rape victims do, because their circumstances justify the violence you seek to eradicate from the world – while defending rapists who commit that same violence on the regular – because you don’t want to admit to yourself that your fantasies have very real and very negative consequences on the most vulnerable people.

                  You only care about yourself. That’s why cheap rape apologia like you’re peddling is evil, and no one should listen to it.

                    I’m afraid of all rape victims? Lol you’re really good at this jumping to conclusions thing. I’m happy to watch you tire yourself out though.
