I don't really believe in torture for most cases but going out of your way to punish criminals seems cruel and unusual. Video of a guy killing a little kid.....no amount of torture is too much.
It's just an article about torture research. Rebecca Roache is the scientist who will be going to hell, if you believe in hell.
holy shit. I can't imagine condoning such horror. why not upload our brains to experience 1000 years of pleasure in eight hours?
Why reward any of your wage slaves with the ability to experience more time than they put into labor? Communist.
If we are going to move away from the death penalty, I think the term "life in prison" should carry more bite. Depending on the crime, I think this is completely justified. Rape children? We should hook you up to a computer where you endure rapings over and over and over.
All in all, this isn't a bad idea. But I do think the effects could be bad if a person were wrongly convicted and given a sentence like this.
I'm not against the death penalty. I don't like paying to keep someone alive that kills people, rapes children, etc. If we could come up with an alternative to prisons as we have them now, I'm all for it. I'm actually in favor of the penal colonies. Dump the fuckers off and let them fend for themselves.
