Hear me out.
If we left the death row guys in prison, they are wasting a bunch of resources in the system. And our death penalty takes too long to get to them.
Wouldn't it make sense to let them all out now and then deal with them lethally on the streets, either through the police or deportations?
Just a thought.
The 38 people on death row were not pardoned. Their sentences were commuted. Very big difference. Their sentence is now life in prison. They do not have execution hanging over their heads. Like Trump, I am deeply angered by this decision. Of all the people in prisons, he would pick the most heinous to commute. That is not him, that is his handlers who have always been anti-death penalty (yet, at the same time, pro murder of unborn children).
They're only anti-death penalty since it makes them look morally superior in their sick heads. The woke would gladly support state sanctioned murder of those that disagree with their garbage way of life.
