    Why should cop killers get the death penalty but the guy who kills you doesn't? Are cops special but you are garbage?

    Cops are our defense. If the cops are gone, there will be anarchy.

    Of course, many would like that.

    I agree but we might not have quite so much crime if we were a bit harsher. 22 years on death row and in a lot of cases nobody is left alive that's mad at them or even remembers them. If Justice is not to be more cruel maybe it should be a little faster. Try taking 22 years to process immigrants through a detention center on the border and see how that plays.

    Our justice system is not efficient and needs a lot of improvement. I believe our efforts need to be focused on our youth long before the commit their first crime.

    Why is a hate crime worse that a regular crime. Is the victims life less important if they were harmed for their money?
