just another reason to not like this asshole.
KILL! KILL! KILL!
fuck that.
Says the man who was ready to put a .45 slug center mass on a fellow human, just this week.
And I wouldn't have blamed you a bit.
You see, there's illegal killing and legal killing. After a fair trial, if a man is guilty of torturing and killing an eight year-old girl, I figure his execution transcends legal. I reckon it could be classified as righteous.

There is a difference to immediate self-defense and killing long after the fact. See, I would be prosecuted for taking a life if I was not in IMMEDIATE DANGER. After the fact, I am no longer in immediate danger. Locking someone up for life, removes the immediate danger, without giving the government the power to kill its citizens.

It's all about justice, my friend.
Are you the kind of person who likes to keep an animal in a cage, and as you occasionally walk by poke the animal with a stick to add to his misery?

Or injustice. As are the many instances that governments have put innocent people to death.
I am not willing to give that power of retribution killing to the government.
But you like to poke animals in cages?

If he ever says that he will lose my support.
No he wouldn’t. You’d justify it in the moment.

I have no idea what you are getting at here.
When you were a kid, and your mama cooked pork chops or a beef pot roast for dinner, where did it come from? Maybe y'all got yours from the grocery store. We got ours from the freezer.
It came from a hog or a beef we raised. It was my job to feed , before and after school. And then usually on one Saturday morning, we got up, walked out to the pen and killed the animal. I've shot my fair share, although my daddy was partial to a hammer.
But you know, we never tortured animals. We tried to make their lives as good as they could be, before they served their purpose.
Prison is an awful place, filled with people that range from non-violent offenders to the worst of the worst. The despair can be palpable as you walk the cell blocks.
So if a man is guilty of the most heinous of crimes, why would you lock him up in a cage and make sure he never breathed free air again? You want to go by and poke him with a stick, so you can punish him more or make yourself feel morally superior because you won't commit to the justice of a legal killing?
He's never getting out. He's taking money out of the budget that could be used for better things. He serves no useful purpose to society. His victims demand justice, and it seems best for all involved to engage in legal execution.
Prove his guilt beyond any doubt, and let him serve his ultimate penalty. Don't set him in a cage to rot and die in a most cruel manner.

You're right
In the correct context KILL! KILL! KILL! could be prudent.
