Progress with the Death Penalty
Today's good news is this article. Did you know that the death penalty appears to be losing favor in the United States? I don't know about you, but this makes me so happy to hear. The death penalty tends to be used disproportionately on people of color, and I don't think it really acts as a deterrent from committing crimes. There might have been a time and a place for the death penalty, once in humanity's long past, but that time and place are not here and long gone by now. I hope this trend continues and one day we can say the death penalty in America is no more.
