Dont you think its "odd" that you are lumping in American criminal executions in the same group as folks who get executed for speaking against their government?

I know I know, this wasn't directed at me but I just feel like I have to say that I think it's "odd" that you know the circumstances of all those executions in China, Iran and the Congo. Do people get executed int those places for anything other than speaking out against the government? I'm pretty sure they do, so it's strange bedfellows indeed.
The OT board is so often dedicated to government incompetence/ignorance/corruption/scandal/lies/deception/stupidity but most of us seem quite willing to let the incompetent/ignorant/corrupt/scandalous/lying/deceptive/stupid government have the right to kill a citizen. Seems odd to me.
