Singapore about to Execute Man with Mental Disability

This is a political topic, yet adding because Singapore features prominently in the tech/startup scene. And because I've seen several people choose Singapore as a place to anchor their startup.

I for one am never going there again. It's a great place if not for this barbarism, wholly incompatible with modern values.

As opposed to the US, which has routinely executed kids aged 15+, and still kills mentally disabled, and people caught while black often with BS charges -- and also has things like "three strikes for life" -- to this day?

I mean, sure, never go there again, and tsk tsk those who anchor their startups there. But not from the US/S.V. glasshouse. If you want to be consistent, you can come here and tsk tsk both Singapore and US while anchoring your startup in E.U, which has long been done with the death penalty.
