Unfortunately for your position, the legal standard is "beyond a reasonable doubt". Nowhere is "perfection" required to prosecute a criminal case.

what should be the recourse for executing an innocent person?

An analogy is not a diversion. It is your argument that has been destroyed, and are now trying to deflect.
yeah, you're a bunch of blood thirsty, knee jerking, emotional fucktards who are too eager to execute someone right after a conviction after the death penalty has been shown to have killed innocent people.
Her argument was destroyed, the minute she decided to ignore what was already presented and started cherry picking and trying to prove a nonexistent point.
I never said or implied your ASSertion; so this appears to be nothing more then projection, on your part
Still no answer from you cunts. What is your acceptable error rate in capital cases? Just answer the question with no pathetic attempts at diversion.
:youdontsay:
As said before, things can be discussed as soon as you stop ignoring what WAS said and not what you want it to be.![]()

is the death penalty worth keeping when it kills an innocent person? or are you going to go all liberal on us and just call it a mistake?
Diversion is diversion.
And I notice that you also avoided the question at hand. What is the acceptable error rate when invoking the death penalty? How many innocent people are you willing to execute to get all the guilty ones?
(laughing) I thought so.

I said that an analogy is not a diversion. Like surgical air strikes, vaccines, high speed transportation, and I can come up with numerous examples, society accepts a small amount of innocent deaths if the rest of society benefits. It is called "the benefit of risk". Far be it for me to play God and say what that number is.
For you, as you so far have demonstrated, the acceptable number is zero. You don't see the benefit of risk, and that is entirely consistent with your leftists stance in general. Leftists don't understand risk, they don't accept it, and they fail to see its value. They don't appreciate those who have taken risks in order to better their lot. This explains their insistence on GovCo as the solution for everything.
"The death penalty in the United States is not a cost benefit analysis or any sort of business decision."
Of course it is. Just not to you. Because again, you don't see the benefit of risk. Without repeating my argument entirely, since you failed to address it, this explains leftists' insistence on GovCo as the solution for everything.
When have I claimed that conservatives make no mistakes? Or that the judicial system is perfect?
Where have I said it wasn't? Funny how you refuse to address my argument that you libs believe that GocCo should control everything.
No its not
