Damn are we good at this whole evil empire thing

If only we'd just start saying we were one and then I'd be much more okay with it.

yeah america is arguably the most evil country of recent history since all the other evil ones like nazi germany didn't last long or are gradually mellowing out a bit, the saddest thing is that it is only because americans seem too hung up on blind, idiotic nationalism to care

The Death Penalty is a huge issue in the Mid/Southwest. A lot of wrongly accused and tried people wind up there, plus people don't realize how inaccurate DNA testing can be even if it can be very accurate at times. However, really the issue is that the detectives of the region are very one-sided: they try and investigate who they damn-well please and even if evidence does not surround said suspect the detectives shall follow their "gut." You only follow your gut when evidence is pointing it. Detectives and FBI both have this sort of stupidity to them now-a-days and in smaller-town-settings found in the Mid/Southwest it's even more prevalent. On top of that, the law enforcement becomes so pressured by media that they have to ACCUSE and ARREST someone, even if they're innocent or lack proper evidence. That's fucked up.

a decent darkhalo post, well i'll be damned

worth note also: in the midwest and particularly south, and even to some vestigial extent in the northern states, detectives' guts have this weird condition where they always seem to latch on to ethnic minorities as the most likely suspect??? how odd

We were talking about unjustifiable crimes here. Common sense. If you're too stupid to realize that by now then stfu

we are indeed talking about the death penalty, i am glad we agree that is the current subject matter

If the defense failed to proof innocence in time, and it all points to guilty then there is nothing that can be done.

actually there is, it is called 'not signing off the death warrant' or better still, 'refusing to carry out the death penalty and permanently abolishing it by law'

oddly enough these are things rick perry seems physically incapable of, perhaps he is too busy bragging about all the people he has had put to death, i am glad it is possible for sociopathic murderers to become state governors in the united states. maybe you could try reanimating pol pot as a potential replacement for the next one who pops their clogs

Have you actually visited our penitentiaries, or talked to any of those convicts?

why do you ask? i'm fairly fucking sure you haven't

since you ask though i have met a few people who used to be in jail here on fairly serious charges and had managed to turn their lives around, since over here prison is about trying to fix broken people, not trying to get a better k:d ratio than the previous governor

Those individuals will never change.

objectively false, tell me more about your extensive knowledge of rehabilitation and psychology/psychiatry

We live in a different society than all of you foreigners.

yes, for one thing we do not allow our government to murder people and then cheer & whoop drunkenly about it and high five each other in the streets

Yeah our shitty drug laws contribute to most of that, but hey blame the federal government and corruption.

lol you want to blame everyone except the asshole signing the death warrants, you are a fucking horrible person, no joke

Deep down I think its wrong, but honestly it had to be done. How else would have knowledge on cures for diseases or radiation sickness etc? We would probably be behind on research. Would you agree? Proabably not.

funnily enough a huge amount of it was nothing to do with curing diseases and everything to do with assholes being curious about 'what happens if i directly inject the active chemical from agent fucking orange into a person's bloodstream', medical research seems to be doing just fucking dandy right now without torturing and killing thousands of prisoners and ethnic minorities or poors

Beleive it or not the US would never allow such a thing. Look at these Latin american countries that tried going against us in the past.

of course, america would kill more people because it is a disgusting power-mad cesspool. i forgot. it's already sprayed aerosol poisons above canadian cities without telling anyone, i'm sure they'd have no issue doing it again on a more serious scale this time.

the sooner the eu, canada, and all the other major powers team up and put your insane fucked up country in its place the better off the world will be

Hey ross, remember when you told me you'd heard what the Soviet Union was like from someone who actually lived there? Remember how you said it wasn't really the kind of place the western media portrayed it as? Now you're here, telling me what my state is like based on second hand information. Wonderful.

hmmm yes, secondhand from people who live there, i don't see your point?

There are fuckups everywhere, and they always get the most publicity. You said that yourself. That doesn't mean the majority of people living here are fag-hating negro-lynching rednecks.

what does suggest that is the state's politics, which either reflect the majority of the state, or reflect a vocal minority but the majority are so fucking disinterested they don't care about rectifying the situation. sorry, but all evidence points firmly in the direction you don't like.

Honestly, I think we had a bit of a miscommunication to start with. If you're trying to tell me that the Texas government is backwards, then by all means. I agree completely. That said, you've got your head so far up your ass right now I don't see the point in trying to have a real discussion. I seriously hope you're intentionally shitposting.

and who put the government in power, and allows it to stay in power?

certainly not all texans are awful, just apparently 51% or more are
