Do You Think the Death Penalty Is a Good Idea?
This was like the one case that Powell says he regretted. And I also think something you mentioned up top, Peter, that bears sort of expanding on is that this case is a great example of something we mentioned in our episode on the Violence Against Women Act. In that case, they rejected the plain fact that gender-based violence is a large-scale problem that shapes the entire national economy. Here, they're rejecting the fact that the death penalty is like plainly a vehicle for systemic racial discrimination,. Yeah. That's what's animating this and that'sWhat's animating the conservative legal movement, right?
