Not to mention the constitution does not give our federal government the job of paying for people’s surgeries, or even their hardships. These things would be left to the states. Our federal taxes should never be used for anything but defending our nation and its legal citizens, international infrastructures, (roadways, transportation,etc,) and interstate commerce. I think that’s all the powers the constitution gives to them? But paying for an inmate’s sex change is NOT something our tax dollars should be used for. You try to kill someone you lose your freedom. Healthcare to treat sickness is one thing, healthcare for preferences is entirely another. That’s a privilege that should be lost when you commit a crime.
Actually, ensuring health of death row inmates isn’t a bad philosophy: if they’re healthy, they want to live so they feel the cruel loss of life. If they’re in bad shape they would welcome death & it becomes a mercy killing. But the killing should be QUICK - virtually all of those MF’ers get to live DECADES after their crimes, something their victims are not afforded.
No, you said, "when you kill another human being," NOT "when you are convicted of."
Okay, never mind, I'm on board.
Unless you killed someone who was actively engaged in killing me, then I would like to see you keep all your rights, and would even be in favor of getting you some more.
THIS: "I always though it a bit weird that you had to ensure that prisoners on death row were healthy enough to receive the death penalty."
Also I think when you kill another human being, you lose ANY "right" you had to anything, ever.

Except please, appeal.
