      Yeah, I agree - but I can make exceptions - read about the Wichita massacre - and frankly, I would be OK with the perpetrators not being on this planet.

          I don't have an issue with a death penalty in principle (since I consider a life in prison to be qualitatively similar to a death penalty), but if we're going to spend all that money and public hand wringing on the subject, it's not worth keeping around.

          Education is extremely important.

              I rather (and this is just my preference) as a society we just don't kill each other. Killing each other will look bad on us when we somday meet alien lifeforms and they question us on our barbarity.

                  Not if we kill them first.

                    If it made it to here, there is no way the alien lifeforms don't know, and respect, barbarity.

                        I rather suspect we’ll be used as cheap manual labour back on the homeworld

                        I was only joking

                          Our cheap labour will be exploited to build a wall to keep out other aliens trying to enter our alien overlords’ world.

                              Irrelevant to the issue at hand. Jolly's made his position clear for many years. There's no conflict there.
