  1. You’re soo quick to issue death sentences.

    Do you remember this story?

    https://www.the-sun.com/news/2834252/innocent-boy-14-executed-electric-chair-south-carolina/
    The crowd there probably also talked about the horrendous murder and warranty against reoffending.

    The problem with death sentences isn’t their humanity or inhumanity. The problem is they’re irreversible. 
    A death sentence can be applied only if there’s 100.1% certainty that the person is guilty, i.e. if the person is caught blood handed on the crime scene with the weapon in hand, there are multiple video records of the crime and fifty independent witnesses testifying against him.

    If there is even a 0.0001% of doubt- there shouldn’t be death penalty. 
    Because no overturning of the conviction and no excuses will bring the innocent victim of the state murder back to life. 
    In this case I don’t think that the woman’s guilt cam be proven with 100.1% certainty. 99% - maybe, but that’s not enough.

    CNN reports Moscow has imposed a citywide quarantine for all residents, starting March 30 until further notice.

    Moscow here. Yes, it’s been imposed, but it’s been done in an illegal way, I (so far) have no problems going anywhere. The problem is that 2 days before that Russian borders were closed FOR DEPARTURES. 
    My mom who lives in another country on a residence permit is now stranded in Russia with no possibility to return home (though the country of her residence is ready to let her in).
    Many countries are now closed for arrivals, but Russia is the only country in the world (I guess) which takes people hostages.

    So it’s obviously impossible to go to Thailand now even for people who wish to. Though I guess there’s not much to do in Thailand now anyway.
    I believe Thailand is quite a safe place at the moment, they have a hot climate and the “aging” Chinese virus (not the “fresh” Italian one). The case growth in Thailand is no way exponential. Moscow alone, in comparison,  took just two weeks to overtake the whole Thailand by the number of cases.
