If you kill the man, his suffering is limited. If you lock him away in a supermax for the rest of his long days, his suffering is a thousandfold.
Why is there any value in making someone suffer for the sake of suffering?
If he's dead he's dead. There are plenty of evil people that are dead and I don't wish them to be alive just so they can suffer.
That's seems worse than killing them.
Sure, but there's also cost to the state to be considered.
That said, the common methods for execution used today are surprisingly expensive.
Isn't it more expensive to execute someone vs a life sentence?
We should do another penal colony. Like Venus or something.
On a tangential note: I propose we ship the top 1% wealthiest people to Mars and make them colonize it.
We can send all the life sentence and death row convicts with them.
Riddick looks smug with his weird sunglasses.
Also experimental. No one wants to make the drugs used to end life so states are buying expired product and shady drugs from Indian compound pharmacies.
Those shady indian pharmacies are one of the things keeping american pharmaceuticals from skull fucking the plebs every chance it gets. Those boys are fine in my book. That countries approach to pharmaceuticals is commendable overall.
Except they have no quality control and you have no idea what you could actually be getting.
Really? That's not what I've seen so far. As long as you stick to the major players or atleast stay away from the more easy handed brands, there's no issues with quality control I think.

It doesn't have to be.
I believe the saw movies had some good techniques
Just make sure to place him in a cell near/with black prisoners and give him a sandwich board like one from die hard 3 with "I hate n*****" on it too.b
Death penalty bad, mop justice good
Mop justice, that's how Jeffrey Dahmer died isn't it?
A) I'm certain he'll advertise it all on his own. Probably fall right in with a Nazi prison gang.
B) I don't think the prisons are intentionally stoking racial tensions. Makes things dangerous for the guards and invites attention they don't want.
The suffering should never be the point. It never gives meaningful satisfaction to the bereaved and affected and studies support this.
It is only human and normal to burn with anger and a desire to see monsters such as this torn apart and made to suffer.
This is part of our animal mind that views tribal justice and the dubious 'wisdom of the crowds' as absolute, and most of the fuckdamn reason we've spent so long learning how to live around millions of each other is in part giving up these outdated and unhelpful social traits.
In the long run, from the cultural perspective, no amount of his suffering will bring his victims back, and no amount of suffering will convince him that he was morally wrong.
So execute him, and quickly, and spend the money otherwise that would have covered his upkeep on free food for single parents.
You were so close! The first four paragraphs were a perfect argument against the death penalty. And then you somehow turned around to argue for it in the last one?
The logical conclusion from your argument isn’t a quick death, it’s trying to reform offenders, no matter how heinous their crimes. If that’s not possible, keep them locked away, but treat them humanely and keep trying.
Dammit, you were so close. Quick executions are how you turn the 1-5% innocent kill rate up to a 10-50%.
