Makes sense. If you've already concluded that someone deserves to die, why the fuck would you give them a gourmet meal first? It has always struck me as such a silly little conceit.

Thinking about it a tiny bit more, I just realized that those meals probably weren't even fully digested by the time of the execution. It's even more of a waste than I previously thought.

Death penalty is a horrible tradition and should be made illegal. Killing a person ''by law'' isnt any different than just killing it. This isnt inquisition anymore, for Christ sake !!! IT ALSO VIOLATES INTERNATIONAL HUMAN RIGHTS LAW.     

I suggest you learn that a given action has 2 parts to it. A purpose and consequences, not just consequences. Looking at actions just based on consequence is very naive and ignorant. Then your whole "then it's the same" schtick falls to pieces.

Do you plan on committing a murder? If not this doesnt effect you.

People love to feel sorry for the prisoners but fail to remember their crimes. Why do people want to protect the criminals and spit on the victims? Look up  Willie Horton and tell me you still feel sorry for these people.

not at all, but i have been all over the world and i've never been anywhere where the people are more self-centered and uncompassionate as in texas.  i don't know where their "fuck you" attitude comes from but just because the guy you're being a jackass to is a criminal doesn't make you any less of a jackass.

I know I should support this really, but I feel a bit bad for the prisoners. I feel that they should at least get a decent last meal before they're killed - many of them may never have eaten one

I'm good with it.

They should get normal meals throughout incarceration. Being put to death should mean that they committed a crime so bad that they need to be removed ... forever... from society. Therefore, why give them a special treat at all?

My only issue is on the entire process of the death penalty. It takes way too long. They should have 90 days to develop a potential case that their trial was incorrect and that's it. That's more than enough time to find valid evidence with today's capabilities.

Texas is governed by some of the most unethical and filthiest politicians alive or to have ever lived, so this comes as no surprise to me.

Good. Prisoners have too many privileges anyway.
