>Your plan doesn't make sense; because, it assume that the prisoner is guilty
A prisoner does not get to be a prisoner without being convicted by a jury of his peers. Now, why is it you have a healthy distrust for this governmental system, but have faith in other governmental functions? Beyond this, you are making the assumption that life in prison is more humane than execution. I'm not so sure about that. Not that we want to make it easy on the bad guys, but think about how you would feel about the prospect of jail for the rest of your life, never again being free to just walk down the street, or spend holidays with your family and friends, having your 300 pound, tatooed cellmate as your main squeeze. The needle does not look so bad if those are your prospects for the rest of your life. Which brings up another point.... I detest the use of medical technology to take a human life. It should not be an easy and clean process that leaves the executioner unaffected. Witnesses should leave the event somewhat disturbed by watching some die by electrocution or poisonous gas. I think the lethal injection makes the whole process too clean and too easy. Think about that a bit. -- Larry Miller --- StripMime Report -- processed MIME parts --- multipart/mixed text/plain (text body -- kept) message/rfc822 --- _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
