    Indeed. Let's kill people solely as a message by the state conveying the sanctity of human life.
    "Beware of the man who works hard to learn something, learns it, and finds himself no wiser than before. He is full of murderous resentment of people who are ignorant without having come by their ignorance the hard way. "

        Well, Sloww once again proves he is on the same level as moby...

          No, it's not. It's a thread built on the lack of interest in coddling murderers.
          A guy tells a stupid joke, KH (for instance) gets all upset.
          Another guy kills people, and the poor dear is mistreated when executed.

          Go figure.

            The regulations are a pain, but threads like this make me realize how lucky I am to live in the civilized world and not some barbaric fiefdom or totalitarian mess. No death penalty in Europe. But don’t listen to me I’m a Eurocommie.

                They don’t mind the company of Liberia and Myanmar in being the only three countries that haven’t accepted the metric system. So I guess these kinds of lists (like infant mortality rates and such) don’t bother them anymore.

                  No thanks, I'd rather not. Who knows what might have been there.

                  Oh, and BTW, keep on dancing on graves... I will kindly remind you next time moby does it and you make your comment

                    Mobius runs his mouth about things outside his concern.
                    Europeans can talk to me about the savagery of Texas, when they're through explaining things like the punishments of Guy Fawkes and Joan of Arc, the Crusades, Spanish Inquisition, on and on.

                    Until then, you don't even count.

                      Is it true that pupils are still paddled in Texan schools, Sloww?

                          On the surface, the analogy falls apart since those are things we've done while execution is something you still do.
                          Exult in your existence, because that very process has blundered unwittingly on its own negation. Only a small, local negation, to be sure: only one species, and only a minority of that species; but there lies hope. [...] Stand tall, Bipedal Ape. The shark may outswim you, the cheetah outrun you, the swift outfly you, the capuchin outclimb you, the elephant outpower you, the redwood outlast you. But you have the biggest gifts of all: the gift of understanding the ruthlessly cruel process that gave us all existence [and the] gift of revulsion against its implications.

                            What's your point? We do to our criminals.
                            My references did to others.

                            This guy showed no remorse. Screw him.

                              What does showing remorse have to do with it?

                                Nothing. It might have been nice had he apologize for devastating families, rather than spitting out curses, then smiling at his family. I'm sure that made them feel better.
