This Year We Can End the Death Penalty in California
a day ago
- Proposition 62 would ban the death penalty in California.
- The author's view changed from debating whether it's okay to kill killers to recognizing real-world flaws in the justice system.
- Real issues include wrongful arrests, incompetent defense lawyers, and prosecutors motivated by publicity rather than justice.
- About 4% of people sentenced to death are innocent, making the real question whether it's acceptable to kill innocent people.
- Proposition 66 aims to make executions easier and should be voted against.
- The call to action is to vote yes on Proposition 62 and no on Proposition 66.
