The Death Penalty - What's the best way to kill a man



I do not trust my government for shit. I certainly do not trust them to correctly/justly/fairly administer death to anyone. I will never understand conservatives who are in favor of the death penalty. That's the time you are going to give the government the benefit of the doubt? Really?
 
Hanging on the long drop. The drop hight is a function of the persons weight.

Firing squad, nuff said

Beheading by guillotine, quick, effective a lot of the time when the blade is heavy enough, this way you can recycle the organs.

^^^^^^^

This. Over and over again.

Conservatives who support the death penalty and the criminalization of pot are really, um, unaware, of the philosophical arguments for limiting the power of the State.

You just can't trust government to kill the right people. Yes it blows to let the murderers and child rapists live but a fascist government leads to control by psychopaths. Read history.
 
I'm not a fan of the death penalty, it's too easy. If there is overwhelming evidence that a person committed a major crime (planned murder, child molestation, etc) they should be sent to a lifetime of work (basically slave labor). Not this pussy ass watch tv, play basketball, workout jails. Mining, highway clean up, human test subjects - any job thats lacking in man power basically. They'll be giving back to the community for the rest of their life. Killing them would be too easy.

People with minor crimes (drugs, robberies, etc) should be rehabilitated, not sent to jail.

This. You people are upset that the government is taking people's salt but your ok with them taking away people's lives?

Really, I don't get the logic.
 
Bury your body neck down in the ground, and have a cobra bite you right in the face.

You need to see death coming at you, not the other way around.

Or maybe stuff a very blunt bamboo stick up your ass till it come out of your mouth, then hang you upside down by the village's corner. Let the scarecrow feed on your rotten falling flesh while your families see your dead body.

And just maybe, you'll haunt the village.

i still think they had it right in the 17 and 1800's
 
As a parent - I am 100% in favor of the death penalty for horrific crimes against children. That is vauge - on purpose - but I think we can all imagine them.

At the same time I am opposed to the death penatly for the same reason that ALL conservatives should be - conservatism is based on the principle that goverrnment is basically going to get it "wrong" a fair amount of the time.

If that is true then the crime/punishment system has to be included. Consequently there should be no punishments handed out that can not be remediated.

Still - if anyone EVER hurt my kids...revenge might be slow, but it would be thorough.
 
Smear honey on their balls and stake them over an anthill. Other convicts get to watch until the screams die down.
 
While I agree murderers should get the death penalty, I don't believe it should be instant. There are plenty of cases where a person was condemned to death but then the evidence showed him to be innocent months or years later. Think of how many innocent people would die for no reason if the death penalty was an instant sentence. There are a reason procedures are in place. Just my two cents.

That being said, lethal injection is probably the best method right now. It's quick, it's painless, and it's hard to fuck up. A bullet to the back of the head might not kill someone instantly.
 
its funny how many of you think the justice system in america is a perfect system in which only the guilty are persecuted. QUOTE]

No one said anything remotely close to that. No legal system is perfect.

As for all of those who defend the wrongly accused. There are just as many that got off on some stupid technicality.

That might be the dumbest thing I've ever read here. "Those that defend the wrongly accused"... you don't? I'd love to hear your tune if you suddenly found your ass sat on death row having done nothing to warrant being there.
 
If the guy is a jerk, stick the barrel of the gun up the guy's ass -- and repeatedly fire until he dies.
