Hopefully they make sure that all the oil and other hazardous wastes that would normally aboard are all removed.

A lot of investigators for fraud and anti-terrorism/anti-organized crime activities?

Republicans hate black people? Say it ain't so. /s

Death by hanging (as long as it is over quick) is probably a less painful way to die than what many of us are going to go through.

I see people mention that in regards to this situation like it is a bad thing, but the truth is, its true for almost every person on the planet. You don't know if you are going to die today. In my opinion, knowing the exact date of your death is worse.

Except, I believe there is evidence that he knew about the fiat account used for the entire fraud.

Over and under on him trying to claim the other two who already plead guilty are the ones who were really behind it all and he had no part in the fraud at all?

He made a deal with separatist forces to fund them, if that is illegal, he will have his day in court. Are you going to claim that Zelensky is despotic because he acquiesced to the courts letting the former president go on his own recognizance?

Next you are going to tell me that if the DOJ goes after Trump, that is the US locking up political rivals too.

How do you have an election when you have parts of the country literally occupied by a foreign power? How do you have elections when your polling locations become targets for Russian missiles?

By political opponents, you mean people who were actively working with the occupying Russian forces.

No, he jailed people actively working with the occupying Russian forces.

They better still get jail time. She was in charge of the actual fund that was at the source of all the fraud.

So half of those entering are granted asylum. Weird, I heard they were all economic migrants 9_9

Okay? And businesses can't fix their supply lines in 2 years? Or are they milking it by purposefully creating shortages to drive up prices?

Except it isn't just this vaccine. This month alone there has been a shortage of 110 medicines. https://www.ashp.org/drug-shortages/current-shortages/drug-shortages-list?page=CurrentShortages&sort=2

A big one is Amoxicillin.

Isn't it amazing, lockdowns ended over a year ago and we are now running short on things we had in abundance before. Hell, we still haven't fixed the baby formula issue yet. I suspect some other type of fuckery is going on.

Find 10 republicans in the senate willing to do that and it will happen.

My example was showing you can't just reverse the situation and take logical conclusions from it.

And no, I wasn't saying that jurors should be allowed to dictate the sentence even if it's not allowed by the law because literally no law only has the death penalty as the consequence of breaking it. A jury has to choose between applying the death penalty in cases that allow it or not. My point is that potential jurors who wouldn't approve of the death penalty should still be allowed to sit on trials where the death penalty is in play.

Of course not and that isn't a good argument.

If I say that we should never put anyone to death, you don't get to defeat that argument by saying it would be just as silly to say we should put everyone to death. Not everything can just have the roles reversed and be the same logically.

Looking it up, in death penalty cases it looks like jurors always get to determine if it is applicable and it always has to be unanimous regardless of state or federal.

Jurors literally make decisions, that is their job. They decide on guilt and they decide on sentencing, sometimes. And the jury is the last line of defense against a tyrannical justice system.

Looks like they had 3.

Part of that article is about how in death penalty cases, they select for people who are fine with the death penalty. That seems fucked up to me because then you aren't being judged by your peers, but by the people who are okay with the government killing you.

If 40% of the population is against the death penalty (made up number) then you should have approximately 40% members of murder juries made up of people who are against the death penalty. If you can't convince 12 average americans that it is okay to kill this person, then it shouldn't happen.
