I think this is a fairly primitive logic. I don't see why one would alternate moral values on a person by person basis.

Similarly people with your view should be on a rotatory to be the executioner.

Also the "humane execution" is done as much for the sake of the executioner as the convict. If you really believe in it you will do it with an axe.

Where's the logic behind your alternative morals comment?

So you would take away one's right to appeal based on one's belief of stream lining a process?

Ironic that your statements are in conflict. :rolleyes:

I did and I think they actually need to remove that inhumane way of execution of a person.

Well, had he had nothing to do with Meth, and not inhumanly shot that guy talking to the feds, he wouldnt be in that predicament, now would he?

I wish they would give me a chance to do it with an axe. A dull one preferably. And ill start with the convicted child molesters, and work my way up.

Is it not a contradiction to murder someone for murder? It such a case it would seem to me that ones morals are being unnesscarily corrupted in response to the actions of others.

I don't understand. What you're refering to?

The authors calculated that, if the Governor commuted the sentences of those remaining on death row to life without parole, it would result in an immediate savings of $170 million per year, with a savings of $5 billion over the next 20 years.

Helps to be informed about the issues you support. but hey, America has LOTS of money and has no need to save 170 Million per year, in ONE state...

So where is your source for your claim? Provide proof. Otherwise it's urban myth

Just in case you accidentally missed it in the posting frenzy, I Wouldn't think you ignored it on purpose or anything.

At least he went out on his own terms. Not many people can say that.

Seems that he would have continued living his corrupt life had he not gotten caught. He did murder the son of someone testifying after all.

In the end he couldn't handle not being in control and that's why he wanted to die.

Unlike Most Americans that go into your punishment system, at least this guy acknowledged he did wrong and took responsibility for it. He seemed a good candidate for someone who knew he did wrong and could have been rehabilitated, if you had a working "correctional" system.

Not many people still speak Gaelic, interesting he would choose that language to utter his last words in.

Maybe in the US they don't, in Scotland we've still got radio and TV channels that broadcast in gaelic. Obviously not as many as english channels but they do still exist.

    • Google's new hand-wave reCAPTCHA can be bypassed with a stock photo by Ivan Jenic Image: Screenshot Google is testing a new reCAPTCHA method that asks you to wave at your camera to prove you're human. So, besides solving puzzles and reading distorted text, you can now use your computer’s camera to pass the verification test. When the hand gesture verification is triggered, your browser asks for camera access and prompts you to perform a simple gesture, like a wave or an open palm. Google says it records a short video of the movement and uses AI to extract 21 hand-knuckle coordinates to complete the verification process. The video is then immediately deleted, and Google swears it doesn't keep it. The process alone can be uncomfortable for people who wouldn’t want their biometric data, which hand scans technically qualify as, recorded. But it gets even more nuanced, as early testers discovered that the new hand-waving reCAPTCHA can be passed with a simple stock image. A user on X tested the new challenge using a stock image of a hand fed through OBS Virtual Camera, and it passed. I wanted to verify it, so I tried the same thing. It took me a few tries and a few stock images, but in the end, I was also able to pass the test. I simply had to readjust the stock image of a generic person waving inside OBS, and Google’s mechanism registered it as a legitimate hand gesture. Once again, it didn’t even have to be a video or an AI-generated hand animation. Given the simplicity of the process, the entire action can be automated in minutes. All it takes is a simple Python script to render the new reCAPTCHA method obsolete. And it doesn’t even have to be an AI bot, which is usually used for solving puzzles and other verification methods. The new reCAPTCHA method is still in its early phase, and Google will, hopefully, update its AI to at least reject still images. However, this incident, combined with users’ initial skepticism about Google’s practices regarding user data, likely won’t make too many people wave at the camera anytime soon.
    • 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 "to fund healthcare and tuition" 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Who do you think you are talking about, some COMMUNIST? We are better than them, doG bless Murica!!! p.s. I'm from a country where government does exactly that, i.e. not form US.
    • Apparently not. I know it is on Edge for business at the moment, but how long will it be before it become on the home version of Edge?
