I strongly oppose it. I think it is barbaric and antiquated.

Mehmet.

Given the reputation of prisons in Turkey and the USA, I would have thought you would have agreed.

But then, if I said you were Turkish, you'd probably scream that your Kurdish.

Well, appart from you strongly opposing it, I dont think the procedure itself is barbaric or antiquated. the shot system is actually one of the most painfree methods of execution known to mankind throughout its entire history. It is also not antiquated, as it is the newest form of execution.

..unless you were saying the CONCEPT of execution is archaic and barbaric, then I would still have to disagree with you a bit, even though I now oppose the death penalty.

Why do you think the prisons are like the way they are over there? Because people like mehmet are the majority over there..and they WANT the govt to run it that way.

just like here in America..the majority of people WANT our govt to run our justice system this way.

Yes, I meant the the death penalty itself, not the ways in which the executions are actually carried out. Agree to disagree.

This is one example of why I'm for it. For these fucks, I would advocate immolation.
