On the organ donar thing I just recall that film about drugs I re-linked above.
Come to your senses, tough man. You are
inviting the abuse of law and order, and even provoke it - for economical reasons.
And do not get me started about the proclaimed deterring effect of death penalties. It is almost non-existent, because most death candidates committed the crime for which they get executed in states and under conditions where the outcome - usually lethal violence - was not planned in advance. There is no deterrance against crimes committed in states of aroused affects.
The Chinese law system btw is not so much focussing on finding out about truth and guilt, but about demonstrating to the public that the state is functional, the party's political course is right, and that there are people who are called criminal and thus do not escape their penalty:
everything is good - that is the message. It is a demonstrating and educating stageplay for the masses (or a tool of political intrigues, to take out rivals in the race within the power hierarchy). That has all a very different focus than Western jurisdiction.
