See post #69 for the complete context.

"I dissagree it has nothing at all to do with rights being respected. It has to do with the difference between being guilty and being innocent."

Thing is, in this country, we have a tradition of deciding guilt or innocence using trials, with rules of jurisprudence that must be respected. When those rules are broken in the trial, a new trial is sometimes granted on appeal.


"You thread is dishonest on your premise. You know that though I am sure. You omit the rest of what he said where he talks about improving the defense end of the system to ensure fairer trials. wich puts the lie to the premise of the title."

As anyone can see in post 69, or by following the link to read the complete interview themselves, you are making a false statement.

"But as far as the part that you chose to pick on. Explain to me how it is more or less heinous that two innoccent children were "put to death" than it is is one innocent is "put to death" sory but I find both heinous in fact I find the children more so because we knew the guy was a killer or at least had strong evidence."

You can't see the difference between the state executing innocent people and criminals committing their depraved crimes?
