The death penalty is inhumane

It violates the right to life- the most important human right. Governments can release someone who was found to be not guilty who was sentenced to prison, but the death penalty can’t be reversed. Many governments use it to silence political opponents. Executing someone is revenge- it does t give justice to a victim and their loved ones. Every day, men, women, and even children (in some countries) wait for their execution. Even if they committed a heinous crime, they still deserve basic respect. Human rights apply to everyone, even the worst criminals.

I agree because death penalty shouldn't even be legal it just takes one life after another and as long as it's available to the judge or our economy then they will make random excuses to use THAT sentence.

 @TheHillbillyLordRepublican from Maryland  disagreed…3wks3W

Then what is going to deter criminals from committing more crimes, which would lead to other people thinking committing crimes is the only way to survive, when criminals don't get the justice they deserve

Porn stars launch campaign against Project 2025 targeting swing states

Concerned with provisions of Project 2025 that could criminalize pornography, a group of porn stars is jumping into the 2024 election, launching “Hands Off My Porn” and purchasing $100,000 in ads in swing states to spread their message. “We must fight back against this ultra-conservative agenda that is rooted in religious conservatism, fearmongering, and the suppression of women’s rights,” Casey Calvert, one of the porn stars involved with the effort, wrote alongside the announcement of the ads. Twenty porn stars came together to found Hands Off My Porn, and they are placing the ads on sites that show explicit content in Georgia, Arizona, Nevada, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, North Carolina, and Michigan, warning users about Project 2025’s drive to criminalize porn.The ads will direct people to the Hands Off My Porn website, where they can watch testimonials about Project 2025’s dangers. “This ‘180-day playbook’ for the next Trump Administration puts the anti-porn agenda front and center – on page 5 of this nearly 1000-page document that’s endorsed by The Heritage Foundation, American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC), the Koch Brothers, and hundreds of conservative organizations,” the group writes online.Hands Off My Porn is referencing the foreword written by Heritage Foundation President Kevin Roberts, who calls for pornography to be “outlawed.” “It has no claim to First Amendment protection,” he writes. “Its purveyors are child predators and misogynistic exploiters of women. Their product is as addictive as any illicit drug and as psychologically destructive as any crime. Pornography should be outlawed. The people who produce and distribute it should be imprisoned…telecommunications and technology firms that facilitate its spread should be shuttered.”
