Force feeding of deathrow inmate???

Posted by Sonya on August 29, 2005, at 9:02:19

Okay, maybe I'm missing something. But I see something wrong with force feeding someone who's already sentenced to death. Does anyone else see the irony?

I guess its not as satisfying killing someone who is dead already.

I mean satisfying with respect to feeling like justice has been served.

Don't mind me...

This just blows me away. I'm not a proponent of the death penalty anyway but, c'mon, if the guy wants to let himself die and the state wants him dead, let him do it!

Unbelievable.
