Response to Leo's Fury

Leo's post about the ongoing Russian interference investigation was a great read. His writing represents the anger and confusion many American's currently feel about the validity of this presidency and the 2016 election. Leo also makes an interesting comment about the prosecutorial double standard for politicians and federal employees, who seem to shirk punishment even for heinous abuses of power. However, I disagree with his implication that Flynn's potential treason deserves the death penalty. Capital punishment is a barbaric institution, that most civilized egalitarian nations have phased out and for good reason. Nevertheless, I enjoy Leo's passionate writing and his reasonable arguments.
