    Well… if you risk a crime punishable by death somewhere you can’t really be surprised that you’ll die if you get caught. I for one am grateful to live in a country that doesn’t have the capital punishment. But even here gettting caught trafficking drugs would land you in jail for a long time.

      I technically agree with you but that’s not remotely the point. I’m against the death sentence in totality myself. I think even the petite bourgeoisie would be better handled by hard labor than death. And that the only acceptable time to kill is in actual self-defense. The death penalty for drug crimes is especially stupid. And so are unforced errors like not just sending them have to be another country’s problem and not yours.

      When killing becomes an acceptable solution it also becomes the easy solution and the regular solution. Which should be the opposite of what a just Society goes for.

        I’m also against the death penalty, if my previous message didn’t made that clear. Also the war on drugs is very very stupid… so much money, time and lives wasted fighting windmills.
