2. I am anti-death penalty
Sun Nov 16, 2025, 06:50 PM
Sunday

I know some of you don't believe in prayer, but I pray every night for an end to the death penalty IN ALL NATIONS. I also pray for peace and comfort for those who are facing it, and for the souls of those recently executed. The death penalty is not only barbaric but exveedingly vengeful.

That said, my father always said that if he were condemned to death, of all available methods, he would prefer the firing squad. He said that if it were done even halfway properly, it was the quickest and most certain method.
