I know my English is a crime too so SHOOT ME not quite sure what you mean.. Hanging and firing squad are painless, if done right.. thus a far more humane way. Most killing-methods used by US gov today are not. Oh, and may I suggest doing it in public? Revenge is what it's about, so why not show everyone..

ViperPilot 0 #3 February 22, 2006 Well at least hanging he can hang there for a minute or two watching as I drink some beer while telling him to go fuck himself. "Would you like some beer?" "Oh I'm sorry, I forgot you're choking to death and can't drink!" QuoteThe execution could not take place after the doctors refused to be present to give the court-required certification that Morales, 46, was in fact unconscious before the lethal injection was given, thus minimizing the pain. You gotta be fucking kidding. "Minimizing pain"...what a crock of shit. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kallend 2,070 #12 February 22, 2006 Yet with only hours to go before the death warrant on Morales expired at 11:59 p.m., San Quentin could not find a licensed professional despite "exploring all the options available," Crittendon said. Barbara Christian, the mother of Morales' victim, said she was angry and disappointed by yet another postponement, which prison officials said would last indefinitely. "We just want to get this out of our heads and out of our lives," said Christian. "The whole justice system, it's ridiculous... The victims are going through more pain than the murderer." Simple solution to that problem - abolish the death penalty altogether, like civilized nations have done.... The only sure way to survive a canopy collision is not to have one.

Dolph 0 #13 February 22, 2006 What disqualified the firing squad as a viable method in the US? I'm no supporter of the death penalty but if it is implemented, why would a firing squad not be an option? For me, rather that than lethal injection or (specifically!) the electric chair.

dontbounce 0 #17 February 23, 2006 Yeah, I would think getting gang raped in Prison for the next 85 years and cant be much better than death... I think the death penalty is too quick. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rasmack 0 #18 February 23, 2006 QuoteI'm no supporter of the death penalty but if it is implemented, why would a firing squad not be an option? Isn't the argument something along the lines of the firing squad being too dramatic and allowing criminals to become "martyrs"?HF #682, Team Dirty Sanchez #227 “I simply hate, detest, loathe, despise, and abhor redundancy.” - Not quite Oscar Wilde...
