Reply to comment by ChrisTheHurricane in Governor Shapiro vows to "not issue any execution warrants during my term as Governor". Also urges Assembly to abolish death penalty. by Canopenerdude

I don’t know, seems reasonable to me. Everyone deserves a chance at life. In some instances, people who have caused an extremely excessive amount of harm to others doesn’t deserve to continue to live.

I’m not even taking sides, just saying I don’t think those two ideas are necessarily conflicting

I notice how you completely ignore my point about it being something worthy of further study. We know a giant ape lived up until about 100,000 years ago and all we have to show for it is 4partial jawbones and some teeth. We’ve catalogued probably less than 1/4 of all species on the planet. Combine that with all the aforementioned evidence and it’s absolutely plausible that it exists and warrants further(read:any at all) study.

You don’t have to look into it, but if you do I think you might have more of an open mind about it.

I didn’t think we needed concrete evidence to warrant further study. That doesn’t make sense. We have a lot of circumstantial evidence which deserves further study. I’ll take the word of an expert who’s studied the footprints for decades when he says that some would be more or less impossible to fake

So you’re saying leprechauns are comparable to a human like primate in feasibility? If we had dna evidence, thousands of visual sightings and tracks and fur of course it would be enough to look into it further. That’s what science is, studying things that you have evidence for to see if it’s true

That’s a fair point but maybe they toss their dead into a lake or take them deep into a cave.

we have found non human primate dna, hair samples from unknown creatures, hundreds of footprints that aren’t just fake tracks that some teenagers put there.(see professor of anatomy and anthropology at Idaho state Jeff Meldrum) Thousands of credible visual sightings from experienced woodsmen.

Based on that you would think it’s worthy of further study by the government. The govt loves wasting money on shit like this and yet they’ve done nothing. That’s weird to me
