America literally executes Down's people.

So now what? We're supposed to cheer on Israel, who literally starves children, because sometimes Iran does things as bad as we do?

Yeah but the USA isn't specifically targeting mentally handicapped people... Yet.

Oh, were they executed specifically for being intellectually disabled as a form of "societal purification" like Iran does to atheists and LGBT people, or like Israel does to Muslims?

Or did they do something else and happen to fall into a group that shouldn't be discriminated against?
