Nick: "Audio is the most important thing" ... also Nick: "BRRRRRRRRRRRRRR"

I was for the death penalty until I joined the army and realized just how incompetent the government is at literally everything.

No faith in government, no death penalty

Video good. Audio aids.

I use to think the death penalty was a good thing but stopped that thinking since knowing that you can’t trust the government to do anything right. I don’t trust them period

Sorry, the audio is a little rough. I never liked the death penalty because the state is terrible at meting out justice.

Thomas Sowell makes a pretty good argument in his book Knowledge and Decisions. The threat of the death penalty can be an effective deterrent, but it has to be done properly and efficiently. Our justice system needs massive reform to achieve that.

I’m a life imprisonment guy, but the prisons need to be like the Count of Monte Cristo. Get rid of these soft “prisons” with tv, internet, conjugal visits, etc.

Everyone who was waiting on pins and needles during the Rittenhouse trial should be against the death penalty; how many called that unjust and corrupt cannot see that it happens to people everyday in this country?

If a prosecutor fails to disclose evidence and a person is later released, they should go on trial and face serving the same amount of time that person was in for.

Sounds like the death penalty is not the main issue here.

Death Penalty isn’t the problem. The problem is corrupt DA’s, judges, and the methods used for death penalty. Firing squad / hanging should be the only forms of execution allowed.

Car is louder than the vocals. This lesson will have to be forever lost on me.

I’m with you Nick. I’m for it if we know beyond a reasonable doubt the person did it but I don’t trust the state to get it right or perform their duties ethically.

Didn't someone say something like , better that 100 guilty men go free than 1 innocent man be convicted. What happened to our justice system?

The death penalty should be reserved only for politicians who abuse their authority, and it should be used so frequently that people are scared to run for office.

I am fundamentally opposed to the death penalty for one simple reason: our courts aren't perfect. There are already way too many people who get wrongfully incarcerated, and I do not like the idea of those people potentially getting the death penalty. If you are alive, at least you have a chance to get out later if whatever verdict you have is overturned. If you're dead, that chance is gone. The government also faces no accountability for wrongfully incarcerating and/or executing citizens, and as such I will never agree with a death penalty.

Driving with Nick is quite relaxing!😹😻🏎️

Love seeing Nick in a nice car living life. More of these please. Your shows are great but it's nice having short form content.

Sounds like we need death penalty reform, not abolition

I like the idea of jail/prison when proven beyond a reasonable doubt, and execution when incontrovertibly and absolutely proven. I do not trust any government though.

Big reason I'm against the death penalty. Due process is an eternal right. The state will always make mistakes, or just be garbage. There are vindictive people that will lie. All these factors have to weigh in. It's always easy for dudes to say, "Death Penalty for all ______"... Until, they're the one being denied due process because the state is garbage and/or someone lied.

If we are to have the death penalty, we must have a minimum standard of evidence and not be 100% reliant on the jury. At least have non-circumstantial concrete evidence be a MUST.

That sound (exhaust) is music ❤

I'm in favor of doing away with the death penalty if we bring back corporal punishment with the understanding that is neither cruel nor unusual. You wouldn't have to create ludicrous prison sentences or accept prison as crimina community college if a bunch of sentences included repeated horse-whipping. As a taking, the state can be forced to compensate you for any sentence - time, fines, or corporal punishment - in proportion to make you whole. But there's no adequate compensation for a wrongful execution.

The trouble with getting rid of the death penalty is that life sentences are just very slow death sentences. Without the execution as a motivating factor, the convicted person can just languish as courts blow off appeals. In this case, the new information might have never come to light, and the guy might have just rotted in prison.

I think there needs to be substantial reform to the death penalty system. Situations like this should be statutorily designated for automatic dismissal. After that, I’ll still support the death penalty.

Firing squad is the way to go, multiple large caliber wounds creates an immediate drop in blood pressure to the point where you're unconcious within a couple seconds, better than drowning for 20 minutes in air. If we as a society decide that the death penalty is something we should do then I think it's required to find the people to do a firing squad, dressing it up as medicine is a pretense that hides what's actually happening and beyond that it creates a disturbing and horrific death, botched (which means death is more than 10 minutes, and 9 minutes of suffocating in air does not sound pleasant to me) a third of the time. As Nick mentioned, the chemicals they use are injected quickly in such a large volume and are caustic so they literally do burn through your flesh while you're paralyzed in agony and then get pumped around your body and they still aren't dilute enough to not cause damage so it is burning from the inside, if the vein collapses under the heavy pressure and caustic agent then the chemical is pumped deep into tissue and you have no pain relief as it burns through soft tissue and you're stuck with a melting bicep while they try to find another vein (I know they don't inject into the bicep but that's where the drug goes immediately and then the burst happens either at injection site or shortly downstream towards the heart through the vein which is the area the bicep is in if injected in the typical place opposite elbow. That causes immediate muscle death and if you look up Rhabdo from people at the gym they go from working out to collapsing in incredible amounts of pain as their kidneys are ripped up by dead muscle tissue, happens so fast so there's no way you're dead before that happens either on a botched or even 'succesful' injection. Edit: It's possible that the electric chair might have actually been better than lethal injection when it killed in one shot, I mean yes you burn and are on fire but all your nerves are firing so there's no discernable sensations just one massive whole body trigger and then you're dead. When they were introducing lethal injection, before world war 2 they were looking at and I think experimenting with gas chambers but that got the kaibosh quite quick, to be honest though, 100% nitrogen is probably a pretty good way to go, it's the way people do suicide and you can find videos in compression chambers of people going hypoxic and trying to do toddler shape puzzles and they can't and then they get giddy where they can't even put their own mask on, a couple minutes of that and they're dead but there's no way anybody would ever even float the idea of gassing due to obvious reasons

the car has to appear in a number of videos for tax reasons :)

nothing wrong with the death penalty, plea bargains should be illegal because they incentivize giving false testimony

Car can be pretty, but we can’t see it, we can only hear it. More than Nick lol . I wonder what Viva does to make the audio sound good or at least decent when he’s on the road.

I live in OK. I think a lot of people here are surprised our governor hasn’t pardoned him, already.

Lovin' the car vids. Now we just need one that starts with you sliding across the hood and hoping in the open window, Duke's style.

End absolute immunity for judges and prosecutors and a lot of this goes away. I bet prosecutors won't "forget" about exculpatory evidence very often if that can lead them to bankruptcy, or make them uninsurable/unhirable.

My problems with the death penalty; 1) Outsourcing the punishment to the state. If the defendant is found guilty and sentenced to death then it is the duty of the jury to pull the trigger. And I mean 12 jurors, 12 guns, 12 bullets. Spare not their feelings. They told a man to die and now they fallow through with it. 2) Legal protections for the state against false convictions. If the state convicts someone, hands out a death sentence and later after the sentence is fulfilled is it found out to be a wrongful conviction; there should be penalties in the *billions* for it, paid out to the victim of the state's family. Executing an innocent civilian *should bankrupt* a state. Because a country that can kill the citizenry with impunity and never face punishment is a country that can commit democide.

Why do people like these? I can't understand a word. There's too much racket to hear Rackets.

This dude is gonna get one hell of a payday.

What? what? has to turn on subtitles to understand what Nick is saying...

Watching your channel and the failings in the courtroom has turned me against the death penalty. Steve Gosney has especially turned me against the death penalty with his arguments.

The only conclusion is: THE GOVERNMENT HAS TO GO.

The state has administered the death penalty to all citizens because one man can't make the audio right on his car.

How do we get the attorney general on attempted murder?

Nick, I love these videos you do in the car. But can you use your big boy voice? Your engine kinda “vroom” you out.

Damn that car sounds sweet. I'm wondering what it is, a Camaro ZR1 maybe?

Great audio of the car

Without functional remedy for wrongful executions the State has no right to claim. And that's being charitable with DP.

I'm 100% enjoying these car videos Nick. Keep it up.

The system isn't broken, it's operating as intended.

Now I get why Matt Carriker/Demolition Ranch uses audio equalizer or something in his videos, it really helps him become audible in car sections.

My hearing has been sentenced to deaf

1. I want more videos of you doing day talks in your car. 2. Please get a mic that boosts your voice above the car. 3. I recognize the state as having the ability to, and likely the right to end the life of the citizenry that has violated the rights of the citizens, but I still think the death penalty should be avoided. Just throw them into labor somewhere, and if new evidence ever points them actually being innocent, then bill the state ridiculous amounts of money for a bad charge. This money would ideally come from the prosecutors, judges, and jury members.

Your audio is low. Mustang sounds terrific though. 😂

Can hardly hear you over the car should have got a Prius 😂

On the way to JUSTICE TOWN

So is this a series where you talk about important issues, but only in a way that is completely in inaudible?

This should be one in a series "The government sucks at..." Endless material.

The problem I see, DAs and assist DAs need to show they have won judgments to show how good of a lawyer they are. Till that stigma is gone, prosecutors are going to prosecutor the shit out of people for fame.

This is just a reason why we need to implement MORE death penalties, not less. Just need to widen the people we target it with. Like shitty lying lawyers. Also, you know, have more solid evidence for death penalty cases.

Hey nick! What do you drive?

That's exactly how I am. If the system actually worked as intended, it would have been fine and dandy. However, the system does not work. Innocent people are getting killed via corrupt officials. So, a hard no to that.

The Ricky Jackson case was the one that changed my mind on this same topic a while back. Human error (whether intentional or not) makes me balk at the death penalty now.

What kind of car is Nick driving? It sounds AMAZING !!!!

I think prosecutors should face the death penalty when they knowingly withhold exculpatory evidence as well as those appellate judges

Ignorant question Mr. Nose👋 Do you get to choose the way you die if sentenced to the death penalty?

The car sound fantastic...Love the growl. Gives me shivers🏎

Couldn't hear a damn word over the engine. Car sounds good though.

I am from Harris County In Houston and I just wish we did it faster.

i cant hear you over that hellcat

1. There should be a threshold of evidence for giving someone the death penalty like cameras, multiple witnesses, fingerprints, and DNA. 2. They should have to make the death penalty the only punishment on the table so that if the jury decides the defendant is innocent they walk free. 3. There should be someone completely disconnected from the justice system who has the ability to access all evidence (which may have been restricted during the official trial by the court) and is required to do a validation of the reasonableness of the conviction.

okay, Nick, but what about the death penalty for corrupt prosecutors?

Let the victims family choose what happens to the one who hurts another

hey boss i think your mic isnt swapping to your headphones like it should be on pick up...just a thought...rakets go brrrrrrrrrrrr

This whole video is a flex for your car

I want a front camera. Also..

Hey, is there any way you can touch on these LGBT+ bills that Florida has passed? I think many people are confused by them and/or have been mislead about them. Some people are claiming bill 1580 gives medical providers the right to refuse emergency care to trans people, but I saw one guy talk about how emergency care refusal is one of the few things that cannot be refused... Would greatly appreciate it. Am gonna check your Rumble to see if you've touched on it there... EDIT: Also, if you could touch on these abortion "ban" bills, would be amazing! I'm trying to read through all these but as a layman it's not easy... I'm not sure what parts I should focus on....

For the unjust things handed out to me and mine, I still believe in the death penalty.

gotta crack a few eggs to make an omelete. death penalty ftw.

🔥🔥 Nick!!!!! Dang, that car sounds AMAZING ~ it will make your sticker peck out 🙌🏻🔥😜

I'm still for it. Just because the system is flawed doesn't mean some individuals don't deserve it, like the Waukesha driver.

Get your editor to filter out the background noise. It's very consistent so filtering it out would be pretty painless.

Whadhesay? Vrooooooooooom I agree Nick. I need a big truck with a big tow package. I’ll tell my husband you said it should go Vroooooooom

Damn it Rekieta, too sexy. The car/aviators/Guns n Roses tshirt combo is deadly. Great rant, too.

We have a legal system that clearly benefits the wealthy and well connected.

what did he say?

Monty is getting the last laugh lol

Sounds like there's someone talking in the background of this internal combustion engine's song

I'm for it, but it must be held to the absolute highest standard of evidence and assurity of guilt. A case like this one doesn't even come close to those standards.

That car is pretty bitchin' but man is it hard to hear you over it

Idk why Nick ranting while agressively accelerating is so funny to me

what kind of mustang? Ill ask again till you reply

I often wonder if we've executed the person who would go on to discover the cure for cancer.

Do you not have a lapel mic for Pete's sake?

I'm not a big fan of the death penalty, but I don't like the idea of taking it off the table completely. That said, I have ZERO faith in the court system as it stands to come to the right conclusions regarding who lives and who dies. I don't believe getting rid of the death penalty for "humanitarian" reasons makes any sense... but a moratorium while the courts get their act together has some appeal. As for a preferred method of execution... I actually just had this conversation with my father the other week. Dad likes the idea of lethal injection, thinking he'd just doze off and not wake up... whereas I think about what it would be like to be paralyzed, but still conscious. Guillotine would be my first pick, but that's not an option here. Our only choices are lethal injection or hanging, since they got rid of the electric chair some years ago... and I don't much care for EITHER of those methods.

I worked criminal defense for over a decade as a forensic behavioral specialist in a death penalty state. I worked on eight DP cases in a primary role and on several more in a secondary role. I functioned as the Mitigation Specialist in one of them. I can say with no reservations whatsoever that the state cannot be trusted to make life or death decisions. One of the single biggest mistakes we make is having prosecutors as elected officials. The moment you combine politics and the law you will start getting skewed outcomes. Now having said that, there are some people you simply cannot keep around. Timothy McVeigh is a good example. That guy had to go, and I don't have an problem with that. But in general, life without parole should be the maximum penalty. Redemption is possible, even for cold-blooded killers.

Digging the car vids. Not a bad way to monetize that investment a little bit 😎

I was not aware of this case but I feel the same about the death penalty. We need to clean house first. And even then...

The Rittenhouse case is why I became highly suspect of the death penalty.

Love the sound of the car 🚘

this audio should get the death penalty.

Damn that car is loud Rackets!
