Yes, but only with undeniable evidence, and sentence criminals to life in prison if the evidence is not undeniable

 @9L5Z8PMfrom New Jersey  answered…11mos11MO

No, it is immoral. The fact that any people are innocently convicted and could lose their life for it is reprehensible.

 @9D9N7PTanswered…2yrs2Y

Only for treason and military offences

An innocent person who got the death sentence can never be compensated. A dead criminal doesn't get enough much time to reflect on what they've done.

 @8Q5FHVXanswered…4yrs4Y

Nay. Let those who would duel for Justice do so.What's more pathetic than crones complaigning about Honour being a dead value ? Those who would oppose the instauration of environnemental conditions propicious for it, and vouch for americanism instead.

Gavin Newsom Defends Immigrants With $25 Million

Governor Newsom signed legislation allocating $50 million total to protect California's policies from Trump administration challenges and defend immigrants facing deportation, split evenly between the state's DOJ and legal defense groups.The funding comes as California anticipates renewed conflicts with Trump's administration, following over 100 legal actions against his first term policies on issues including climate, water, and immigration.Assembly Speaker Robert Rivas justified the funding by characterizing the Trump administration as "out-of-control" and threatening to Californians' constitutional rights.The signing occurred just after Newsom's Washington visit to secure federal disaster aid for January's devastating Los Angeles wildfires, which claimed more than two dozen lives.California recently enacted a separate $2.5 billion fire relief package, with expectations of federal reimbursement for disaster response costs.Republican lawmakers criticized the legal defense funding as a political distraction from wildfire recovery efforts, with State Senate Minority Leader Brian Jones calling it a "slush fund."Critics raised concerns about the possibility of funds being used to defend immigrants with serious felony convictions, though Newsom indicated this wasn't the intended purpose.The legislation emerged from a special session Newsom called shortly after Trump's election in November, demonstrating California's proactive stance against anticipated federal challenges.During Trump's first term, California initiated more than 120 lawsuits against his administration, spending approximately $42 million on legal battles.Annual legal expenses fighting federal policies during Trump's first term ranged from $2 million to nearly $13 million per year.
