    this particular person isn’t the time to make your stand on.

    Those of us who are vehemently against the death penalty tend to be vocal about it every time it comes up, not just when it’s happening to awful people. It’s important to make it clear that even in cases like this, the death penalty should not be a thing, because otherwise we tacitly agree that sometimes, the death penalty is a good thing.

    This particular person is absolutely the time to make our stand against the death penalty, because if we don’t, then we don’t stand against it at all.
