If only the Governor of Missouri would do the same; that State is prepping for a stream of executions beginning early next month.

Just looked it up - the governor of Missouri is a Republican. So…not.

They'd abolish the death penalty in a heartbeat if we started executing traitors.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Not necessarily true. The Governor of Illinois, George Ryan, was a Republican who commuted more than 160 death sentences in 2003. And, so, perhaps.

More culture war masquerading as humanity.

160 commutations, 35 african americans convicted by all white juries. You won't be surprised when you look up the population numbers in the state and the demographics of death row. Not only did race play a hell of a role in who got convicted, it looks like it played a hell of a role in who got a commutation.

LOL, they had to scrape the bottom of the barrel of a few percent and found plenty of white heads worth keeping on shoulders, but in the 90 some odd percent of people on death row, could only find a few black heads worth saving.

A Republican in 2003 is not a Republican in 2022.
