What method of execution would be appropriate for drug dealers? Getting stoned?

"If somebody goes and shoots somebody, or kills somebody, they go away for life and they can even get the death penalty, right?" the president said. "... A drug dealer will kill 2,3, 5,000 people during the course of his or her life. Thousands of people are killed or their lives are destroyed, their families are destroyed. So you can kill thousands of people and go to jail for 30 days."
Can someone count how many people Trump has killed during his life?

None, he got five deferments with a bone spur. :P Kind of makes me question the sincerity of his, 'Even if I was unarmed I'd run in there and take them out' comment. XD

If we're counting drug dealers killing with drug overdoses, we should count Trump killing with his shitty business & presidential decisions.

Enebias: Crime bosses have opinions, too. In their thinking, killing for profit, slavery, threats, beatings and so on are perfectly fine.
But everyone is entitled to their opinion, right? (This was an hyperbole obviously meant to say that not all opinions deserve respect or worse, tutelage)
But this is what I mean, they and anybody else don't have the right to do any of that and yet they do. This is why the idea of death penalty exists, obviously. I'm just talking about a human ideal that never has nor ever will exist, where people don't fuck each other over.

Enebias and X-com are actually having a polite rational discussion in here.



OFF WITH THEIR HEADS!

I know what you meant, I was reinforcing the thought! :)
Because let's be honest: lots of people believe they can say whatever they want and being immune to attacks. An opinion is such when it is informed, motivated and rationally valid.
"Kill de baddiez iz gut" is not an opinion, even if the US president says it.

The US Supreme Court already held it to be unconstitutional to execute someone for a crime other than homicide or treason. So obviously this will go nowhere.

I do not agree with the idea of a death penalty for drug dealers, but I also do not agree that drug dealers should get away with peddling meth and heroin with impunity.

There has to be some sort of middle ground here, folks. The heroin epidemic is so bad these days that you have to be kidding yourself to think that the problem needs TLC and it'll go away.

It's called a prison sentence.

We could clone the drug dealers, and force them to be our slaves.

It worked with Hitler.

Or better yet, we could just force them to go to Cleveland Browns' games.
NO NO, that'd be too cruel.
