A single person should never have the sole power to undo an unlimited number of lawful convictions. It seems like a power designed for corruption.

A single person should never have the sole power to undo an unlimited number of lawful convictions. It seems like a power designed for corruption.
- eviks 2y agois the power to put people in prison designed for corruption? And if so, should it be limited to a max of 1 person / judge / term?
- UltraSane 2y agoThe court system has a LOT more checks than one man's whims
- dylan604 2y agoyou say lawful convictions, but yet have not provided any evidence of all convictions being lawful. we absolutely know that people have been wrongly imprisoned. but at this point i feel like i'm talking to a 3month old bot
- UltraSane 2y agoI trust a conviction by a unanimous jury verdict with strict rules of evidence than but the whims of one person.
- negus 2y agoAre you proposing to drown mercy and forgiveness in bureaucracy? Corruption is a valid point generally. And this question can be raised when discussing pardon for president's family. But is this point valid for this specific case, for the man who already spent 11 years in prison and has no relation to the president?
- UltraSane 2y agoI'm only in my 40s and I have already seen Presidents and Governors pardon people that absolutely shouldn't have been pardoned.
