But lawfulness does not depend on your opinion (unless you are part of the supreme court or equivalent). It depends on the law. You can call it immoral but it’s lawful by definition.
But it isn’t. It’s illegal in 23 states. Legal in some and illegal in others and the listing is growing. Sentiment against state sponsored revenge killing is also growing.
That’s the US and I’m sure there is some clusterfuck between state law and federal law in a lot of places. But hence “It depends on the law”. In general, if the death penality is legal and it’s carried out according to the law, it’s a lawful killing.
Personally I’m very much against the death penalty and I’m glad we don’t have it here.
Well all get attempted murder because they were willing to kill even if it wasn’t their button.
Well, murder is unlawful killing, this is lawful killing, so no murder charges in the first place.
But the post here is just talking about “killing” anyway. Not sure what’s the bible’s position is on Schrödinger’s killings.
It’s not lawful in mine and many eyes. State sponsored revenge killing.
