【美國日記】21.05.11 加速實施“種族滅絕”！_風聞

這就是美國！美國已經幾乎幾十年沒有執行死刑了，在BLM興起，白人至上主義抬頭，美國警察殘殺少數族裔層出不窮，根據預測，美國白人將在未來幾十年失去主導地位（人口占比低於50%）的前提下，突然加速死刑執行率，“司馬昭之心路人皆知”！

《國會山報》：南卡羅來納州眾議院本週以66票對43票的贊成票投票通過，增加了射殺隊作為該州執行死刑的方式。如果由於缺少必要的藥物而無法通過致命注射來殺死死亡，則法律要求被判有罪的囚犯在被槍斃或電死之間進行選擇。如果南卡羅來納州州長如預期的那樣簽署該法案，該州將與俄克拉荷馬州，密西西比州和猶他州一道，通過射殺隊來執行死刑。

南卡羅來納州上次處死囚犯是十年前。支持者説，該法案旨在“加速”執行死刑，並給受害者家屬一種“終結感”。

州政府召集一支射擊隊的想法可能使許多人畏縮，因為它讓人聯想起軍事處決的形象。 “要求”某人通過電刑而不是開槍選擇死亡的想法幾乎是肯定的，因為國家幾乎沒有注射致命注射的藥物，這使其他人認為，整個討論是如此離奇，以至無法輕信。

為了獲得良好的答案，您必須提出良好的問題。**南卡羅來納州立法機關的問題的實質是，他們認為最重要的問題是“如何加快執行死刑的速度？”**而不是問問題：“國家應該處死任何人嗎？”

讓我們看一些事實。美國人口中約有13％是黑人。在美國死囚牢房中，約有41％是黑人。研究反覆表明，司法系統將黑人判處死刑的機會遠高於白人。黑人因白人死亡而受到定罪的機會比白人因殺害黑人而被定罪的機會要高得多。死刑顯然是不可逆轉的，但在美國，每年平均有3.9名死囚被判無罪並從監獄釋放。

在美國關於死刑的討論中，種族偏見的陰影一直籠罩着美國。在內戰期間，南軍中有11個州。 11個州中有10個州（佔91％）維持死刑。北軍有21個州。仍有五個（21％）判處死刑；其他16個已將其取締或暫停使用。但是，如果從計算中刪除北軍中三個奴隸州（密蘇里州，肯塔基州和馬里蘭州），則其餘18個州中只有三個州（17％）有死刑。當您比較北軍州（17％）與南軍州（91％）的死刑率，而死囚牢房中的黑人的比率是其人口百分比的三倍以上，那肯定是有一種模式，不是嗎？

In order to get good answers, you have to pose good questions. The essence of the problem in the South Carolina legislature is that they think the most important question is “How can executions be sped up?” rather than asking the question, “Should the state be executing anyone?”

Let’s look at some facts. About 13 percent of the U.S. population is Black. About 41 percent of the people on death row in the U.S. are Black. Studies have repeatedly shown that the chance of a Black person being condemned to death by the judicial system is far higher than for a White person. The chance of a Black person being condemned for the death of a White person is vastly higher than that of a White person who is convicted of killing a Black person. The death penalty is, obviously, irreversible, yet an average of 3.9 death row inmates are exonerated and released from prison each year in the U.S.

The long shadow of racial prejudice continues to fall across the discussion of the death penalty in the U.S. During the Civil War, there were 11 states in the Confederacy. Ten of the 11 (91 percent) maintain the death penalty. There were 21 states on the Union side. Five (21 percent) still have the death penalty; the other 16 have either outlawed it or placed a moratorium on its use. If, however, you remove the three states in the union (Missouri, Kentucky and Maryland) that were slave states in 1860 from the calculation, then only three of the remaining 18 states (17 percent) have the death penalty. When you compare free states (17 percent) versus Confederate slave states (91 percent) with the death penalty and Black people on death row at a rate over three times higher than their percentage in the population, it sure seems like there’s a pattern, doesn’t it?

來自南卡羅來納州的美國參議員和美國副總統約翰·C·卡爾洪（1782-1850）致力於捍衞制度種族主義和動產奴隸制並摧毀工會。他説：“沒有發現任何文明的有色人種與建立和維持自由政府的種族一樣。”

約翰·卡爾洪（John C. Calhoun）和南卡羅來納州的悲慘和討厭的遺產是，通過捍衞死刑對有色人種不成比例的死刑，並在其執行工具中增加了射擊隊，從而繼續了該州對人類生命的攻擊。

John C. Calhoun (1782-1850), U.S. senator from South Carolina and U.S. vice president, devoted his career to defending institutional racism and chattel slavery and destroying the union. He said, “There is no instance of any civilized colored race of any shade being found equal to the establishment and maintenance of free government.”

​ It is the sad and unenviable legacy of John C. Calhoun and South Carolina to continue the state’s assault upon human life by defending a death penalty that falls disproportionately on people of color and by adding firing squads to its tools for execution.
