The three state killings came just two days after the Democrats’ sweeping victory in the November 3 midterm elections, which constituted a stunning repudiation of Trump’s policies on social inequality, war, the assault on immigrants and attacks on democratic rights. Yet a wide internet search turns up not a single comment from any Democrat on Thursday’s three executions.
They can’t solve every issue all at once. Personally, I’m against the death penalty. But I’m more concerned about innocent people dying of starvation or lack of healthcare than about people who have been convicted of murder being executed. Again, I don’t want people executed, but most of them weren’t innocent.
They don’t try to solve every issue either. It’s not the same as saying they should shut up?
