@TheEconomist: Whether because of drug shortages or legal challenges, executions take decades to be scheduled, so few of those condemned to death are actually killed. And juries are now less willing to impose capital punishment 👇

I mean, this is pretty DARK! And to be clear, I agree that the "mass deportation" plan they brag about is bloodthirsty fantasy, but that terrible things would happen as a result of them trying. But I also feel like "mass executions" is just as unworkable and fantastic!

I wonder if the USA's gun laws explain why its public opinion is such an outlier wrt executions. Their availability normalises the idea of killing people, and also makes the idea of eventually releasing prisoners seem more threatening.

In Alabama prison guards accused of violence and misconduct carry out secretive executions. A guard accused of violence against a prisoner now oversees a team performing tasks that can impact how long it takes for someone to die or whether they feel pain.

Our superior civilization based on law and international order has decided that extrajudicial summary executions involving thousands of civilians are perfectly compatible with our cherished values.
