Skybird, look at my first post in this thread. I clearly state my views on the topic that you posted.

This thread has become a steaming mess, partly due to the Golden Rule (on all sides), AND the unnecessary platforming in the original post.

If you dont want a death penalty debate on your page, fine, there's an easy way to do that. Alas, it appears too far into the thread.
You said it yourself

But all that is not the thread's focus, as I said in the opening. It is about the possible cruelty of a special way of killing a person that is to be executed, and that by ruling of the 8th amendement, "cruel punishment" is illegal in the US.
That should have been at the top of your first post. Instead, you broadcast your opinion on the logic of the death penalty.
You know how easily arguments brew up here, the way to avoid them is NOT to say what you think and then type "Let's ignore that debate". You're being disingenuous, I believe.

And I don't even care...

OK, that ends the Skybird portion of my post.

Rest of you guys: shut the hell up
Tchocky: Stop telling everyone what to do, you clod!
Everyone: leave the "teflonman" and "crybaby" out of it
Stop telling everyone what to do, you clod!
