Quote History Quoted:Quoted:
Trying to protect our feelings like that doesn't work.
What he's done is so horrible and repellent to us *because* he and others have value.
If an animal had done what he did - killed those people - we would be sick with what happened, but not repulsed at the bear in the same way.
The guy denied his humanity to do what he did.
That's disgusting.
Your entire argument is based on that he had value/humanity to begin with.
Yes.
And he denied that, and he denied that it existed in others and attacked them; removing them from this life.
He deserves to be executed because he denied that value in himself and others he attacked and defaced the same in others in a way that cannot be restored or fixed.
Plus, those who do such things have nothing left holding them back internally and you cannot have society with people who do that.
We don't want to think that humans are that corrupt, and will destroy or deface something of that much value ... it feels denigrating, and it is, but we are and we do that.
If the people weren't of value and he wasn't, we wouldn't be repulsed at it. We wouldn't think he had changed himself and done things to himself that were repellent.
It would be no different to us than cutting the grass.
