The best way is simply NOT to do that. You don't kill a thread, you ask it
to commit suicide. There is no reliable way to forcefully shut down
another thread.
The thread must periodically check some value (perhaps an Event object; in
simple cases any variable will do) and (cleanly) exit when asked to.
Threads that run pure Python code may be interrupted using the API call
PyThreadState_SetAsyncExc; look for a recipe using ctypes to call it from
Python.
