To ask what you think of the death penalty? (Don’t open if you don’t like talking about death and crime)

[Chancewouldbeafinethlng]

I listened to Adam Buxtons newest podcast episode and found it very interesting.
I’m not sure how I feel about it. On the one hand there are some criminals who I would not piss on if they were on fire, I think they really deserve to die. But then there is always going to be a person who’s job it is to kill that person.
Also there is the risk that someone has been falsely accused and maybe not had a fair trial. How would you ever know?

The episode touched on the method used currently for the death penalty. The woman who was talking was saying how unreliable it is and is basically torture if it doesn’t work. What other methods could be used though?

Sorry I know it’s a very morbid subject but I would be interested in hearing other people’s opinions.

Say the death penalty was reinstated in this country?
What kind of person would be happy to march someone to their death, volunteer to flick the switch? What kind of person is happy to kill someone?
They would be paid to essentially be a mass murderer.
Other mass murderers would be killed by them for it for doing it in the first place.

Executions will be carried out by drones operated from call centres in third world countries

Or there could be a kind of national lottery system where you could buy a ticket and if there was a really big case, a particularly sadistic violent offender, millions would buy tickets to get to be the one who flipped the switch
It could be you....

That sounds like a potential Black Mirror episode

Yes I remember the reality TV show punishment episode of black mirror, just an extension of public beheadings and chop chop Square isn't it
