Painless execution

[Jawz II]

People are saying some disturbing things in here, aren't they

wow, what do you know, we agree on something..

guys, its not healthy to fantasize about killing people in creative ways, thats actually how real serial killers start their careers, for your own sake, you should stop doing it

if someones giving you a hard time for no reason, you should stand up for yourself, like BC did

even if it means youll get your ass kicked in, its totally worth it, otherwise youll have emotional scars for the rest of your lives, and end up hating yourself for not doing it

ps. the chinese way, is the way to go, when it comes to executions, read danns (da man) post, if you havent

Somebody kills three people, I wouldn't mind seeing him screaming while the executioners are trying to figure out what's wrong with the electric chair.

But that's the entire problem. The irony of executing someone as punishment for murder is so thick it's a wonder advocates of capitol punishment don't choke on it. The logic is completely skewed. I realize that revenge can sometimes be sweet, but isn't it kind of hypocritical? And how come the executioners aren't executed for executing the executees? (If you follow me.)

Awww....CRAP.

Thanx a heap, Jawz, now I gotta add another line to my sig, and I don't have any more room in it!!!

 

[Jawz II]

What?? I don't see anything wrong with it. Kidnapping is also against the law--yet nobody complains when the police arrest somebody. Which, really, is exactly what the police do every time they arrest somebody: kidnap them and deprive them of their Right to Liberty.

The key point is: it's legal to kill somebody if the law and the court system sez so.

If a person kills someone , they lose the right to life ( by not respecting it ) , and all corollary rights thereof . Thus , another person is justified in killing that guy , as said guy has no right to life in first place .

I find it quite pathetic when seeing people trying to imagine ways to torture people to death and justifying this by "they were bad people !".

It's an excuse to unleash repressed sadism/need for power/bestial instinct.
At least be honest about it.

Just punishment and unwinding your dark desires aren't exactly the same, you know people...

Whatever happened to cutting off one's head with an ax?

Its still done in many nations in the Middle East. Saudi Arabia has a nice little place nicknamed 'chop chop square' by Westerners. Of course terrorists use this also, but usually don't get it done in one blow so it is quite painful.

As far as US States go, most use relatively painless lethal injection. Most of Europe has learned that life in prison is the best alternative, though I suspect it may be the most painful as many 'lifers' actually 'find' religion and hence guilt for their crimes.

I like the firing squad personally.

No crazy weirdness of the electric chair and it's quick yet efficient and frightening.

Here the police take those sentenced to death to the middle of the woods on the appointed day, then neatly shoot a single bullet to the back of the head. Mightly efficient and quite painless. Unless the gun jams...

I hear in China that sometimes they take a convict right from the courthouse and shoot them in the nearest park, sounds efficient

I hate prison. I spent 4 years there *drumroll* *rimshot*... no but seriously, what dumbass thought of prison? it's the most stupid wasteful counterproductive piece of crap idea that anyone ever had in the history of the world.

You're paying to keep people alive, and for what? so they

A. Die eventually anyway having accomplished nothing
or
B. Get out and do it again

I prefer forced labour. It's punishing and most importantly, you make a profit out of them.

If I had to be executed I would prefer the guillotine!

Death from above!

Quote from Wikipedia on nerve gas:
Initial symptoms following exposure to sarin (and other nerve agents) are a runny nose, tightness in the chest and dilation of the pupils. Soon after, the victim will then have difficulty breathing, and will experience nausea and drooling. As the victim continues to lose control of his or her bodily functions, he or she will involuntary vomit, defecate and urinate. This phase is followed by twitching and jerking, and ultimately the victim will become comatose and suffocate as a consequence of convulsive spasms.

Now you cant tell that wouldn`t be fun to watch.

NOTE:This should be a punishment only for serial killers,mass rapists etc.

I like the chinese way myself. a quick shot to the back of the head seems a pretty painless way to go. Apparently everyone here is a repressed sadist though.

Haven't done that in a hundred years though.

My grandfather was born early enough to have witnessed public beheadings. He said they held these in the town square. A few minutes before the "event", a guy with a gong goes around announcing it to all. Sure enough, a crowd soon forms. I imagine the more squemish would lock themselves up in their homes instead.

 

[punkbass2000]

no but seriously, what dumbass thought of prison?

That would be Bentham.

 

[Taliesin]

Why not chloroform or morphine? That would be quite cheap and completely humane.

Yeah, we need that, but make it private for some decency. Can't be havin' it in public, heck a stump outside the prison yards would be excellent

Of course terrorists use this also, but usually don't get it done in one blow so it is quite painful.

Yeah, them terrorists don't know how to do things

As far as US States go, most use relatively painless lethal injection.

Unless they screw up the drugs or dealing with heroin users...

Chloroform can cause some really nasty allergic reactions, but a morphine OD might not be too bad.

Doesn't China now have these new "execution" busses that travel from town to town and are complete with all the tools needed for lethal injections?

I heard these are supposed to replace the firing squads in a few years.
