Reply to comment by Spiritual-Hedgehog-7 in Governor Shapiro vows to "not issue any execution warrants during my term as Governor". Also urges Assembly to abolish death penalty. by Canopenerdude
A: The government should not have the power to execute its own citizens.
B: Fear of the death penalty does not deter heinous crimes.
C: The justice system is about justice, the death penalty is inherently based on revenge and emotion, two things that do not belong in a modern judicial system.

Am I though? If it isn’t “society’s responsibility” to provide assistance, then what else is going to happen?
Besides, what I said is based in reality, Americans are literally dying RIGHT NOW because they can’t afford to go to the doctor because of the mind numbingly stupid joke that is our healthcare system is.

No, but if it is in a factory and enough fine particles are kicked up and mixed with the oxygen in the air, it can easily become an explosive. But it also could have easily have been a gas leak as much of that infrastructure is aging.
