Back to my original argument though I started that I’m ok with life in prison, I just don’t agree that one person basically circumvented the rule of law because she didn’t like it. It’s a slippery slope and sets a horrible precedent and I don’t think it’s ok whether or not you agree with the change. Would you be ok if say, Youngkin in Virginia wiped away abortions with the stroke of his pen cause he doesn’t like them? Be honest now.

Of course a single person is elected as Governor and I know they have the ability to do this however it’s on a case by case basis. Not a blanket statement across the board. She commuted someone that killed a 3 year old, another that killed his wife and 2 kids, another that killed a Mom and her 2 sons, and two others that bombed a bank and killed 2.

I’m ok with no death penalty but it strikes me really wrong that one person can override something put in place by a fully democratic process by popular vote both in 1978 and 1984. Especially when done by a party that’s all the time claiming the other party is one that is trying to circumvent the democratic process. Pure hypocrisy.
