Classic Economics says that if price goes up, then demand goes down. Yet leftards have been trying to ignore economic reality by mindlessly demanding that the price of murder be ignored so as not to offend their sensibilities.
Liberals oppose the death penalty despite the common sense reality that increasing the cost of committing murder decreases the willingness to commit murder. Now we have academic studies, supporting common sense, the death penalty does deter murder.
Sister Toldjah says:
I take a look at the molestation and murder of 6 year-old Christopher Michael Barrios as well as the torture, rape, and murders of young Tennessee couple Channon Christian and Christopher Newsom and I wouldn’t feel any moral conflict should their rapists/killers get the DP.
In Mrs. Clinton’s spirit of the common good, if taking life away from a few murders lets many more live, sobeit. The death penalty should not be viewed as if it were some sort of moral dilemma, but rather only a common sense approach to crime.
If the lefttards wish to refute the common sense proposition that increasing the cost of murder does not decrease the rate of murder, they will need some extraordinary evidence. Good luck.
