I simply don't get this.
I don't doubt that some of these people on Death Row are there as a result of crimes of passion, but most of them I would think are there because of the heinous nature of their crime.
Why can't a gallows, rope and hood serve the purpose?
I just don't get the thought process.

A lot of Bow Hunters carry a .22, just in case they do not get a clean kill...just sayin...

I always thought that the LETHAL INJECTION was the surest way to kill. Well, the GUILLOTINE was the SUREST way but those Frenchies overdid it an we don't have the guillotine any more.
Maybe we should bring it back. What say you?

Mr. Lockett was convicted of shooting a 19-year-old woman in 1999 and having her buried alive.Karma. It's a bummer.

Did they administer an ice pick? This guy raped and murdered a CHILD!
To: rlmorel
Cheaper and generally works. Yet not as nice as going to sleep. Don’t know why we should afford human thugs the same courtesy as a beloved good animal.

I hate to admit it, but North Korea has had some recent success with flamethrowers.

This schmuck buried his victim ALIVE so either way he went he got off much easier than his victim
To: Oldeconomybuyer
Sounds like G-d wanted him dead and in Hell one way or other.

The object is to kill the criminal.
He’s dead, so the execution was successful.
Why do we mollycoddle these rejects from society?
Just kill the societal reject and be done with it.

Why not knock off all this folderol and go back to a good old-fashioned hanging? It’s quick, efficient, and you can use the rope over again.

This is a ghoulish thread.
I cannot imagine anything more grotesque.

And this, of course, from The Slimes...where everyone who has been proven guilty is “innocent” in their minds. They jut want these maniacs back on the streets killing more “carbon emitting” people. Sick, sick, sick.

The scum that raped and murdered the child is the one whose execution was postponed for two weeks.
