    Pres. Trump calls to "stiffen up laws" on the death penalty to deter attacks like the shooting at a Pittsburgh synagogue: "Anybody that does a thing like this to innocent people who are in temple or in church... they should pay the ultimate price." https://abcn.ws/2D8981y pic.twitter.com/6b9dNO7z20

        Clueless. Mass murderers aren’t deterred by the death penalty.

        Why do you need “peer reviewed” proof? Do you hold Trump to that standard or just strangers on twitter? These people accept that dying is a risk they assume when they shoot up a place. Often times they kill themselves. Why would stricter death penalty laws deter anyone? Nonsense

        This has nothing to do with Trump. Are you aware that states exist that have the death penalty. They have been proven to deter the individual condemned at a rate of 100%. Who pays for these inmate to be taken care of at any other option? I have no interest in paying for them.

        Additionally, you retort is not consistent with Mr. Timothy McVeigh who perpetrated the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing, that killed an innocent 168 people and injured over 680 others. Tax payers took care of him until his lethal injection.

        That proves my point. Tim McVeigh knew that the death penalty was an option and he still bombed the building anyway. It didn’t deter him.

        “McVeigh then revealed he was afraid of being shot like Lee Harvey Oswald,” yet more proof against your railings. Conversation is over. Have a great life.
