Confirmed: Senator Mike Lee is a wanker

[Copelius]

Still proud to say that I have never voted for Mike Lee, starting when I was a state delegate.

The change in behavior and outlook is pronounced enough I kind of wonder if he is going through some mental... metamorphosis.

This isn't something a public figure would just throw out. "Hey everybody, just do you know the bad guy in the MMM saga is a durect relative of mine and here is a quote from his execution."

Ted Cruz couldn't wait to jump in on the fun. Does he really know who John D. Lee is and what he did?

It sounded "alpha" and betas are ever in need of sounding "alpha."

There was a somewhat recent execution by firing squad in South Carolina (?) that is in the news because the shooters may have mostly missed the heart of the convict, perhaps leading to additional suffering. I wonder whether his post is related to that.

That's gross. The toll that carrying out the death penalty takes on corrections officers psychologically should be taken into account. It's not a forgettable action

I knew Mike Lee in high school, although he's a couple of years younger, so my brother's age. He seemed ok back then although my brother thinks he was a little full of himself. He's definitely making his Constitution loving dad turn in his grave.

I always thought Mike Lee spoke with an accent and cadence like Dr. Raymond Stantz from Ghostbusters. Wonder if that character made some sort of impact on him or something?

I think that anyone who supports the death penalty should be at the minimum willing to watch an execution and potentially willing to pull the trigger as well.

Keep sticking it to the gays Mikey.

I am sure that there are often times members of the family of the murdered who would line up for the chance. Seems like they should get first dibs in this scenario.

The death penalty debate doesn't move my needle. I support life without parole mostly because it is the cheapest option that still protects a free society from murderers.

That's a bit morbid, but I think I can get onboard with that. Reminds me of the people I worked with during 9/11 calling for our military to go kick some butt, but were not interested in signing up for that fight personally.
