Attorney General Bill Barr said the Trump administration will move next month to speed up the use of capital punishment against convicted mass murderers

New Orleans , marking the first policy development in the wake of the two shootings earlier this month that left scores dead in Texas and Ohio.

Legislation that allows for the"imposition of any death sentence without undue delay" in cases of mass murders, as well as slayings of police officers, will be proposed after Labor Day, when lawmakers return from recess, Barr told a national law enforcement gathering in New Orleans."Punishment must be swift and certain," he said.

Don’t bother just accuse them of sex trafficking they’ll do the job themselves right ?

Barr and Trump practiced their capital punishment on Epstein.

Way to be pro life GOP

Be better to not let these atrocities happen in the first place, duh.

On brand. If someone isn't complying, don't look for causes or for methods of prevention. Just punish them harder. (Once that doesn't work, ignore harder.)

How about new methods...perhaps digging into some Medieval practices. 😉 And maybe offering family members of victims a choice to push buttons or encounter the restrained murderer... 😮 Just make sure first... that they TRULY aRe Guilty. That's key!

How does that minimize the risk of more mass shootings? Seems to me he's looking at this from the wrong end of the stick. It won't change the problem staring USA in the face.

He should do the same for anyone found guilty of committing treason against the United States of America... including the president...while in power.

Speed up friggn gun reform before next shooting -it is coming !

Save the tax payers money. Just jail them for life. BOOM, a month or so down the road they will commit the ol’ BARR Suicide by Homicide.

They should follow the way it's done in Egypt. The old Mubarak plan.... Trial in the morning, Verdict by noon, firing squad in the afternoon...

Death penalty isnt a deterrent, its been proven over and over. Just look st murder rates in death penalty states

How's that help, we need a speed on GunReformNow GunControlNow Death penalty won't bring our love ones back, this is bull💩.

Even if theyre white supremacists?

Good news.

Not sure if this will change anything. Don't most mass shooters go into this knowing they will be killed by police or just commit suicide.

Good

Donald-the-dumb hired underage girls to give massages at his clubs. Think about that!

Doesn't bring victims back to life

And what will they do to try and stop the next one? That's the big question here. Because right now, that answer is .... absolutely nothing.

DOJ to introduce bill to speed up executions for mass shooters, cop killers: AG BarrNEW: Attorney General Barr says the Trump administration will advance a proposal to expedite death penalty proceedings in 'cases of mass murder' or murder of law enforcement officer. 'Punishment must be swift,' Barr says. Barr lied about the Mueller report for Trump. I don’t believe he is truly going to investigate anything about Epstein’s death. I’d rather they just not happen. This will do nothing. Tim mcveigh was executed. The murderer who killed people at a bible study at mother Immanuel received the death penalty. It won’t matter these people are fine with martyrdom BLA BLA BLA BLA BLA BARR BLA BLA BLA BLA BLA BLA PUKE
