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.

But the government isnt who decides who gets executed or not. The prosecution can bring a death sentence charge against someone, but its the jury who decides. A group of fellow citizens who usually run the gamut of social/political/gender/and age considerations.
Whats that got to do with incompetant, ignorant, corrupted, scandalous, lying, deceptive, stupid, elected representatives.
