Dear Huttons,
re: “Who really knows if even the guillotine is painless?”
Beyond ‘painless’, the head is still alive until the brain suffers oxygen starvation. So, it is not that quick.
As the title suggests, find that historical picture of a South Vietnamese general putting a bullet through the head of a captured VietCong, or the video, if you can.
No thanks Jerry. Not my cup o' tea.
IIRC, the shooter retired in the US and owned a pizza joint in the DC suburbs.
Something to think about the next time you order hamburger pizza. All those grey chunks ... Best avoid pizza places in DC.
