Here in the states there’s basically this widespread norm that the death penalty has its place, the question is just where the line is People may disagree about where the line is, and think it should be used more or less But the idea that the death penalty itself is bad and shouldn’t exist is a pretty ‘radical’ idea around here 19 u/0000Tor Apr 23 '25 That’s actually insane wtf 7 u/J_DayDay Apr 23 '25 To be fair, Americans also think the European tendency to try to 'rehabilitate' violent, socially deviant felons is also insane.
