Way to duck the questions, coward.

Message 18439573

Again:

With respect to the first link: do you find the possibility that three, instead of thirty-nine, individuals that were executed may have been innocent enough to swing the pendulum in favor of giving the state the benefit of the doubt?

Is one a reasonable price to pay, in your opinion?

"The remaining 11 cases represent 0.14% of the 7,800 executions which have taken place since 1900. And, there is, in fact, no proof that those 11 executed were innocent."

Since when have individuals had to prove their innocence? At best, that's a lousy basis for the conclusion reached in the article; at worst, it's scary as hell.
