Anesthesia=no pain for the convicted/condemned. True. But sort of takes the sting out of the whole punishment aspect. I don't know the circumstances of my own death as yet, but of all the possibilities, passing away while unconscious sounds pretty good.
The good outweighs the bad. Maybe. Ethical behavior? I have doubts.
Rather than concentrating on the punishment, which will really never act as a deterrent, no matter what is done to the bodies, maybe we should fight terrorism with good 'ole American capitalism.
We've heard the stories of Saddam and others promising large cash payoffs to the families of those willing to strap on a bomb and go sightseeing. What a waste to have all those livers and kidneys blasted to oblivion when American entrepreneurs could offer a far higher cash payoff, with the end result (dead terrorists) being the same. Don't you think it a good idea to adopt the view of the middle east as one vast field of organs ready to be harvested?
In my view, it is unfortunate that by the time the war on terroism is won, we will have long since developed the ways to grow new organs in pickle jars.
