I wrote this today, and thought that it might be of interest to you guys:
Political thought for the day: when it comes to human life, social liberals consistently come down on the wrong side of the issue. The lives of the unborn, the elderly and the incurably sick don't matter (as evidenced by the fact that they tend to be "pro-abortion rights" and "pro-euthanasia rights"), nor do the lives of police (as evidenced by the "black lives matter" movement)...but the lives of violent criminals do matter (as evidenced both by the black lives matter movement and by the social liberal protest against the death penalty).
"But," the social liberal will tell me, "consider all those who have been acquitted because of DNA evidence." I answer: "Yes, we now have DNA evidence. Their guilt can be all but assured now! Wherein lies your objection?" Let us not kid ourselves: the social liberal only hides behind uncertainty as behind a mask. Deep down, he just doesn't think that violent criminals deserve to die (or even that they really deserve punishment) if it's not strictly "necessary." But the unborn, the eldery, the incurably sick and the police...?
