Well, that would work! I once read about a bb gun that would fire some 5000 bb's at one time, from a pneumatic charge of some kind. Totally lethal, and I have no idea what it would be used for. But, it might be applicable for your concept.
Today's death sentence, when carried out, is much too kind and humane. The recipient really has no discomfort of any kind, simply nods off and isn't even aware of "death". It's not unlike having a couple glasses of wine and passing out on your couch. The only difference is, the wine wears off and you wake up.
I say, if we're gonna do away with the death penalty, make the alternative so miserable the recipient wishes for, and would seek a way, to end his own miserable life. We would take precautions that he wouldn't be able to do that, either. |
