So, you don't want to punish them for treason because of how narrowly it's defined under the US Constitution, but you do want to punish them for regicide, which... isn't even a law in the US?
- Alupis 4y agoI think the point the parent was making was there is no current law that affords death as a punishment for this crime - but there should be. Or at least that is my take.
- ejb999 4y agoRead the post again, the OP said: "should be comparable to the traditional penalty for regicide."
- adamrezich 4y agoyet nobody read that because they were hung up on "regicide", and now all of his posts are [flagged] [dead] even though he has a completely 100% valid point.
- jjulius 4y agoWell, yeah. This is a perfect example of how a valid point can be completely undermined by how you communicate it. Those are [flagged][dead] because of the rhetoric used within. There was no attempt to have a nuanced discussion on their part.
