    I’m of the mind that death is too good for anyone that should be sentenced to it. They should be made to suffer in an inhumane prison instead. The prohibition against cruel and unusual punishment should be lifted against monsters.

    My personal design is would be a 3m stainless steel cube with a waste hole, food dispenser, and a rodent-cage water dispenser. That’s it. No medical treatment, luxuries, sunlight, exercise, distractions, diversions, bedding, or even clothing - not even human interactions. Just leave them in there to rot, and when they die, just hose it out and throw in another monster.

      Torture is so so great!!! I love how you’re putting your sickness out there. You’re really leaning into it.

        Honestly I will go far enough to openly agree with u/@Etterra

        So, there it is. What are you going to to about it?

          I’m going to disagree with you. What else would you expect? I could also challenge you to think carefully about the consequences that this kind of policy would have, but I have only a smidgen of hope that you actually would.

            Please, by all means I welcome you to challenge my opinion by refuting it here. My mind is not made up, I’m a self-admitted humble idiot who deserves the benefit of the doubt.

              What opinion exactly? You’ve only stated that you agree with someone else’s.
              If you think that subjecting prisoners of certain crimes to inhumane conditions is a good idea, then it’s a simple refutation: the justice system is not perfect and people who are innocent WILL be subjected to that treatment on occasion, which is unacceptable - a similar argument to the one against capital punishment.
              If you want to get into a debate on rehabilitation vs. punishment then that’s another matter.

                I am not being sarcastic when I say this, but you have convinced me to change my mind with a single simple refutation.

                  Well that is the very pinnacle of discourse my friend. Thank you very much for being intelligent enough to do it and brave enough to say it. I like to think I do the same when I encounter a sound argument. Are you a scientist by any chance?

                  Edit to add:

                    No, and I am barely intelligent enough to recognize that I’m stupid.
