BUT DEATH ASSURES IT

lets say you cant escape.
and even if you can:
is it worth to live with thr fear that you might get caught again,you can't get a job, probably youll have to escape to another country, you wony be able to contect youre relatives etc.
i say death.

death is the ultimate escape

i say those who get caught again aren't really trying to escape.

is it worth to live with thr fear that you might get caught again,you can't get a job, probably youll have to escape to another country, you wony be able to contect youre relatives etc.

I propose no double jeopardy for escapees.

so whats youre saying is that living is better than dying no matter what the circumstances are?

Death sentence, because you have to worry about the heartbreak your loved ones feel as they watch you get executed.

Don't commit a crime, kids!

Is that Stephen Malkmus?

Living with the memory of what you've done, what you've left behind and what you're missing or none of those, simple really!

How long am I going to be on death row for?

From a May letter to Italian President Giorgio Mapalitano, signed by 310 prisoners serving life sentences for murder, the only crime thar carries a life sentence in Italy, which banned the death penalty for all crimes in 1994.

Dear Mr. President of the Republic,

We are tired of dying a little bit each day. We have decided to die once and for all, and we ask that our penalties of life imprisonment be converted to penalties of death. To be not dead but not alive either–life imprisonment turns into shadow, it kills you inside bit by bit: a death in small doses. It renders life useless, makes the future seem the same as the past. It crushes the present and takes away hope. To a life prisoner, only life remains. But life without a future is less than nothing. It is flat and everlasting. Life imprisonment is the invention of the Antichrist with a malice that transcends imagination. It is a victory over death, stronger than death itself.

can my final meal include class a narcotics?

those prisoners should write a novel

i think, from the point of view of the victim's family, is better to think that the killer rot in jail than killed.

who needs a last meal?
the cigarrete cliche is much more logical

If I was a victim's family member, I would want the criminal killed just so I knew they were gone and wouldn't have to think about them as much. Even thoughts of hand-wringing schaudenfreude are thoughts about a person who I'd like away from my thoughts.

Which is why victim's family members should have no roll in the judicial process.

Last meal request: Liver and onions, cottage cheese, red tomatoes and a single cigarette. (The cigarette was denied under prison policy.)

I figure I could get a lot more reading done if I was in prison for life than if I was dead
