No convicted felon unless it was a miscarriage of justice deserves a pardon. This is not directed at you, this case or any other felon.
So who the heck is it directed at? You cant say "No offense" and then proceed to offend an entire class of people.
Say "I dont believe..." or "IMHO".
Thank goodness what you think doesnt matter. It only matters that the Executive, whether state or federal has that power in my case. The US and NYS constitutions vest that power in the Executive alone and it is discretionary. There is no requirement that it relate to a miscarriage of justice. It is as close to temporal power as our democratically elected executive can get.
