   @blogdiva I have always been opposed to the death penalty under all circumstances, but if I hadn’t been before, Tennessee would have been enough to convince me. Not blood that I want on my hands, even by proxy.

     ❝ The Church teaches that the death penalty is 'inadmissible' because every human life is sacred, no matter the harm one has caused or suffered, and because we have more effective ways to protect society than to take another life… We don't make our communities any safer or deter any #violence by perpetuating that cycle with #executions. ❞
