is it time to move?

While Kbin is here I am here. I don't think Kbin is dead at all.

You can't theologically base views you goddamned wankers.

given that capital punishment will occur

I don't give that. I don't give it a bit. Especially if holes can be poked in every new method as these ghouls come up with it

There is no reason to acquiesce to an inevitability that it will occur just because shitstains keep trying to execute people. I remember it was decades wasn't a single execution in The United States.

"what is the least bad way to do it?”

There isn't one, and every single method should be objected to as it comes up.

And I said they are different procedures. Someone intending to die in a pod is not the same as attempting to force someone to die strapping a mask to their face.

A person in a suicide pod is cooperating with the process not biting and scratching for precious life, potentially causing oxygen to leak into the mask and cause excruciating suffering.

I am not saying it is immoral to kill prisoners so you shouldn't use this method (although I say now it is immoral to kill prisoners and you shouldn't ever do it by this or any other method).

I am saying this method does not work for executions and you can't use it for its intended end.

Apparently this method

Working for suicide is very different from working to execute a non-willing participant.

FfaerieOxide , 8 months ago to Star Trek in I just finished DS9, and I'm sad to know that we'll never get anything like it again

never get anything like it again

That isn't quite true until you've finished these four episodes of the pseudo-canon radioplay Alone Together where Garak and Bashir Quarantine from Space Covid.

FfaerieOxide , 10 months ago to Politics in [News] "Hit list": Trump grand jurors face violent threats after names and addresses shared on QAnon forums - Salon.com

No, in Georgia you have to release the names or the indictment is defective.

• Indictment that failed to show the names of the grand jurors who found the indictment is defective. Willerson v. State, 14 Ga. App. 451, 81 S.E. 391 (1914).

Indictment would have been defective had the indictment failed to show the names of the grand jurors who returned the indictment. Hawkins v. State, 260 Ga. 138, 390 S.E.2d 836 (1990).

FfaerieOxide , 10 months ago (edited 10 months ago) to Politics in A right-wing sheriffs group that challenges federal law is gaining acceptance around the country

No, what makes you think I want that kind of governance?

I have already said Good Things are good and Bad Things are bad.

Fascist sheriffs: Bad
Bombing the MOVE building: Bad

What in the phrase

it's what that government does.

reads in any way as support for Philadelphia pigs bombing people?

If anything it reads to me as firmly against that sort of thing.

As you referencing Fight Club right there?

FfaerieOxide , 10 months ago to Politics in A right-wing sheriffs group that challenges federal law is gaining acceptance around the country

I think Good Things are good, Bad Things are bad, and violence should be used to make more of the first thing and less of the second thing.

An overseer torturing an enslaved worker on a plantation is "local governance".
The 54th Massachusetts Infantry shooting that overseer through the head and heart like Peter Weller 22 minutes into RoboCop is "top down governance from a thousand miles away".

The location of a government is not what makes it inherently good or bad, it's what that government does.

Killing slavers—lest there be confusion—is good.

What anime is this from?

Episode 14 of the 2nd Gig of Ghost In The Shell: Stand Alone Complex 左眼に気をつけろ POKER FACE

It can be streamed here but if you do so I think David Zaslav gets a nickel so consider other options

FfaerieOxide , 11 months ago to Politics in Republicans’ New Border Plan: Send Military Into Mexico

No thank you.
I've seen that anime; don't like where it leads.
