The way my instructors explained it is that you, "stop the killing, so you can stop the dying. Get your ass in there and take them out."

In addition to the court costs, there's the addition housing costs associated with death row. A normal housing unit may have 50 or 60 inmates in a dorm to two guards. A death row unit will have 10-1 man cells to 1 guard. Even if there's only one death row inmate. Getting close to execution it will be one guard watching that one inmate separate from other housing units.

They argue that it's different because they're executing an adult that made bad choices and is facing the consequences. While taking a pill to induce miscarriage is killing a poor innocent baby.
They even extend this logic to pregnancies, resulting from rape. They can't be aborted because that would be "punishing an innocent child for the actions of someone else."

They never got a trial, so I suppose technically they're innocent.

Since we knew it was coming before it got here, probably not much.
There is something to gain from seeing what questions a potential adversary is asking, though. So let it go a bit, hiding what needs to be hidden before it arrives, see if you can jam any transmissions it's making. See what China wants to know without giving anything away. Then, when you know what you need to, down it and collect the technology.

You never know what's going to happen. Russia could decide to go all in along with allies.
Sure, they'd be fought back, but Germany might still need the tanks to do that with.

I'll confess that I was repeating the same thing I've always been told about NOLA water taste ranking, which is from 1984

There's absolutely no excuse for that. When we take someone into our care, the first step is to put a hospital style tag around their ankle. On it is their name and date of death. We do that in their homes before we even lift them onto a stretcher.
In addition, we ask the families to bring in an ID or photo of the decedent so we can have something to compare them to at every step.

Yep. Koch Energy may have poisoned rivers repeatedly, lobbied for laws that benefitted them at the expense of workers and citizens, and supported candidates opposed to basic human rights. But, good luck switching to a competitor.

Their pursuit was in direct violation of department policy, and they lied about it when questioned. That may have affected charging decisions.

Even better, amugglers can cut their way in and have a staging/drop-off area. With a little work, they can even disguise the entrances so that casual observation won't give them away.

Landlords are parasites who contribute nothing. They create an artificial scarcity of a resource required for life then expect others to pay for their "investment". And you think people should be grateful for that?

Maybe they should get Clooney to be a subject matter witness.
"Every single time I’m handed a gun on the set — every time — they hand me a gun, I look at it, I open it, I show it to the person I’m pointing it too, I show it to the crew,” Clooney said. “Every single take.” Then, “You hand it back to the armor when you’re done.” He said. Part of it is because of what happened to Brandon. Everyone does it. Everyone knows” that is the protocol to follow. “Maybe Alec did that — hopefully he did do that. But the problem is dummies are tricky because they look like real [rounds]. They got a little tiny hole in the back [from which] somebody’s [removed] the gunpowder"..."I mean every time I get handed a six-gun,” or a gun that holds six cartridges, “you point it at the ground and you squeeze it six times,” Clooney said, noting “It’s just insane” not to.
