This one's for the people who support the death penalty. The Republican former Chief Justice, the former state Attorney General, and the prosecutor who presided over the original trial all agree the guy should get a new trial. The state of Alabama is like, "Lol, nah, he's staying on death row, bro." Op-ed: I voted to send a man to death row. It turns out he is innocent. www.al.com/opinion/2024/04/op-ed-i-voted-to-send-a-man-to-death-row-it-turns-out-he-is-innocent.htmlCopy/pasting is a pain on mobile, but here's the most relevant part, IMO:

The death penalty should be abolished.

Liberals have been telling us with regard to a recent case that judges, prosecutors, and jurors are never biased against the defendant.
Ergo, the defendant got a fair trial by a jury of his peers.

That has ABSOLUTELY NUTTIN to do with the death penalty being a bad idea. It only means the APPLICATION of the death penalty has to be fixed.
Abolishing the death penalty because it's wrongly applied is like saying that you should never build a boat, because someone built a boat out of ice cubes and it sank, so you say that we need to abolish "building boats". It only means that you shouldn't build boats out of ice cubes.
It's like abolishing fire in grills because someone made a grill out of dynamite and it blew up and killed six people, instead of building a grill out of a safe material.
It's like abolishing tires because your tire went flat.
It's a stupid argument for abolishing the death penalty that only stupid people swallow, because only stupid people are stupid enough to agree with a stupid argument, a stupid argument that makes zero sense and has zero logic to it.
