    (no one deserves it really)

    I call bullshit. Would you claim Hitler, Stalin, or Mao didn’t deserve death?

    Be careful when speaking in absolutes. The world is rarely black/white

      Well, yeah. I believe in rehabilitive incarceration. Of course they likely wouldn’t be let out ever again, and given their control of their countries military; killing them would likely be the only option (unless we had a death note >:3).

      *Like they would have mandatory cognitive therapy which would create opportunities for them to right their wrongs as much as possible by communicating their new thought processes to their ‘followers’.

        Except there’s historical examples of tyrants getting out of their sentences and taking control of their military. The notable that comes to mind is Napoleon.

        Not for a justice system that was developed hand-in-hand with the KKK (yes, the police really did develop that way) then I’ll agree in that condition due to the system often being used to suppress minorities. But that’s not what’s being discussed here.
