Life in prison is not enough. That may have been an option after the civil war if they had done what needed to be done at the time. Unfortunately, this go around, there will need to be more drastic measures, and this doesn't just involve the officials, but the supporters as well. There is a blood debt that will need to be paid if we'll ever move beyond this for good.
Are you calling for people's deaths?
Regardless of how serious their crimes are, calling for people's deaths is not a great way to be(e) nice.
Most of the unfortunate people who support the current administration are suffering from a lack of funding for education and other systemic issues that are not their fault. If the system were to collapse and be restructured, we should aim to help those people, not punish them.
Some people, yes. I'm not interested in being nice. I'm interested in putting an end to 400+ years of racist trash making life difficult and creating as much suffering as they possibly can.
