Why? Because the state asked permission of the dominant religion of that state to pass a law? That's actually really stupid IMO.

When over half the population of said state is of that religion, getting a little blurb from the religion regarding the issue, makes it a lot easier for the voters to accept. That they should have to ask for this is stupid, but, politically it is a good move.

The msot humane method, but which interfered with a lot of our experiments, was using gas (overdose of an anasthaetic). Otherwise we used rapid dislocation of the neck (either via metal rod behind the base of the head and push whilst pulling tail, or by using your fingers instead), which when done right results in instant death.


Yes, I used to perform work on the lungs of rats, so anaesthetic overdose or asphyxiation were completely unsuitable so it had to be the concussion method of euthanasia. I became extraordinarily efficient at it after a few years In fact if a friend ever offered me a pet rat to hold I don't think I could because the training would just kick in

Bring back hanging, drawing and quartering. We're English, we are the people who should determine how people die.

That's the method I've used to kill a couple of rats...though I wasn't actually touching them. Our landlord put glue traps out in the hallway, and occasionally I would come home and find a rat trapped in one, squirming. So I'd put the bugger out of his misery as quick as I could.

Increase Your PM Length

Im fine with bringing back hangings and other such killing methods, as long as school kids an soccer moms and the whole town is made to come out and LOOK at the deaths. That is half the point of such killings, not only to make the person suffer, but to make an example to the public, which means the public must be present. Want a guy cut into four bloody pieces? Then have Mrs. Smith' third grade class sitting front row.

I bet most proponents of the death penalty would NOT support such a move..I mean, think of the children!

Well, we are thinking of them..won;t seeing some person beheaded (why not the guillotine? It is both messy and "humanitarian") would sure scare kids straight away from murder, no? Much better deterent value I would assume.
