formally vs formerly?
@KolHaolam: BOSTON: Judge formally sentences Boston marathon bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev to death.
I don't get it. The guy apologizes and they still want to kill him?A choked-up Dzhokhar Tsarnaev apologized in court Wednesday to the victims of the Boston Marathon bombings, then was formally sentenced to die for the attack.
You didn't really mean it right??
Do you always just take apologies for anything??I hope this is just "popcorn bait"...!!You didn't really mean it right??
So we'll apologize also after we kill him.
Which hopefully won't take decades.
We nursed him back to health so he could stand trial to be put to death. How many millions have we spent on this piece of garbage ? Crazy
the process is just starting...
This is one of the reasons people are against the death sentence. Keeping him in jail for life would be a lot cheaper than putting him to death...
They should've finished him off when they had the opportunity, during the firefight.
And spending the rest of his life in prison would also cost a fortune.
death penalty trials are 20 times more expensive than trials seeking a sentence of life in prison without possibility of parole.
This is one of the reasons people who are already against the death sentence are against the death sentence. Keeping him in jail for life would be a lot cheaper than putting him to death...
I think this is more accurate. I doubt anyone considers cost as their main opposition.
It usually gets lumped together with the fact that it's ineffective as a deterrent (the fact that we waste so much money on an ineffective deterrent).
