RE: Too fat to execute


I don't love the state, nor do I believe in ' The State ". Maybe just cause it's a very ugly word, but still. I do believe in government, and I could love a moral one if it ever existed.

Are we talking about something different in "the state"? I am talking and always have been talking about the current configuration of large human societies, the nation-state. Whether autocratic, oligarchic, or democratic, I firmly believe that there exists a better solution to organizing human societies. In fact, I think it's silly to conclude that all human civilizations, from here on out, will always be centralized authoritarian nation-states.

Now, I realize that your ideal state is not authoritarian, and I think that's a step in the right direction. I also think they can be decentralized and that that would be a more effective solution.

Putting aside the debate over the legal and moral validity of the death penalty, I find the quest to find a completely painless way to execute people kind of silly.

Very few people get a painless death. As a law abiding citizen, it's very unlikely that my death will be painless. Looking at the statistics, chances are I'll die of heart disease, cancer, or in a car accident. The same goes for just about everyone else.

Obviously, nobody is entitled to a painless death. Why should committing a heinous murder be a golden ticket to a painless death, something which few ordinary citizens (let alone the murderer's victims) are afforded?

How about we give them sleeping pills, and throw them off the top of a building?

That would be a good way to execute fat people, but imagine the cleanup.

Just designate a hole to drop the bodies in. A huge pit that goes hundreds of feet under the ground. Every few centuries we'd have to clean up the hole and make room for new people.

Too bad we don't live in space. We could just airlock them, a la BSG.

Cryogenically freezing people is always cool! How about that?
