ORIGINAL: FelineRanger One of the purposes to a trial is to demonstrate that we are better, as individuals and as a culture, than the ones he embraces. How does engaging in the same kind of torture as he did show that? Did you pull that out of a comic book? The purpose of the trial is to establish guilt or innocence, and to dispense justice as society deems fit. Society isnt on trial, nor is the death penalty. A murderer is, and it is his actions alone that condemn him well before the jury is ever assembled. The trial only brings his self condemnation to light. Murder isnt the taking of a life (as in an act of war, or removing a feeding tube, etc). Murder is the deliberate killing of an innocent person And yeah we are better than that because the jury has determined that Tsarnaev, who had full legal representation at an open and fair public trial, is not an innocent person.
