> “Did they have anybody study the history of the Holocaust?” [Robert Dunham, executive director of the Death Penalty Information Center]
Radiolab’s More Perfect series did one episode on the death penalty. I side with Gandalf against, but if we have a death penalty I feel we need to own it; no blanks in the firing squad, for example, and a matter-of-fact approach rather than some nonsense about reducing (visible) suffering.
We opted to legally kill our dog (still considered property?) at the veterinarian clinic by lethal injection. The dog seemed accepting enough, dying in contact with loving family, but I don’t know; maybe there’s a better and cheaper way?
