Nothing indicates a painless or stressless death. Hemp rope still works. It just needs to be used within two months of the “Guilty” verdict.
Ecclesiastes 8:11 When the sentence for a crime is not speedily executed, the hearts of men become fully set on doing evil.
All persons in the past who killed a President got the noose within two months after the sentence.
Am I wrong?
If they insist on death being painless I suggest the criminal be held under water for 30 minutes.
You are correct.
Or we could bring back the guillotine.
you are comparing what is unusual over different centuries.
The point in question is whether to make the death sentence more painful. You say yes, I say no. Your position will lose in any court in the US and with a majority of citizens with IQs over 70.
I believe that after a irrefutable conviction and exhausting of appeals, the murder should be executed in a manor that approximates what his/her victim experienced.
Executing a SOB that murdered people in almost all ways is neither cruel, nor unusual.
Personally, hanging is cheap and reusable; or bullets are cheap
Bullets are cheaper and quicker.
Carbon neutral too.
About time.
It isn't for the murder victim.
No sympathy for the murderer.
Good ideas.
If I were put to death, I would choose firing squad. Guillotine would be better.
What does everyone have against ROPE??”
Rope, plus a weighted drop into deep water?
Hanging and firing squad are the LEAST painful.Death is instantaneous.Same with the guillotine except there is a clear post death consciousness of the severed head.
All of the rest of the so called modern executions by drug, electricty,gas , etc, all take many seconds to minutes.....an eternnity when a human is dying.
BUt the left as usual goes by outward appearances and politica correctness,and the methods they aspire instead of being less cruel are the cruelest possible,. but they “look good.”
I am also in favor of public executions. Such crininlas should not be allowed a right ofprivacy in death because the state loses the deterrent effect. Let the would be criminals see what their destiny will be for murder and also for raping a child , or conducting a partial birth abortion( yes these should carry a death penalty.)
I also would like to make suicide a possiblity instead of an execution. That way they relieve anyone for having to bear the trauma of being an executioner.Let then take their own life in any manner of their choosing, and if they fail hang em.
Now, off to a lighter activity: beer, a hockey game and a wee snog.
Lawyers. What else? Responsible for more f ckery than can be known.
There is a prohibition on “Cruel & Unusual” punishments.
A strict reading of that, cruel is OK. Unusual is OK too. Just not both!
