^ This. I'll do it on a 1099, if they pay for travel. I can do one week a month. Cram as many as you want in that period.

If you can kill People who are helpless in cold blood, no matter how much that person deserves it,  and sleep fine at night, you probably belong on the chair, and not the one flipping the switch.

Raped/murdered an innocent person? Click.

One's a sociopathic murderer, the other is a state-sanctioned execution, punishment for a crime.

But thanks for the lesson in moral relativism, I sleep well at night anyway.

They don't kill anyone. I'd bet they are happy as fuck because of the shitbirds being off the count. fewer to feed, fewer to shower, fewer to deal with. This is a stupid left wing cunt story.

I know alot of ADC staff. Most of em are good ole boys who would have zero issues pulling the deer rifle from their truck and offing the filth themselves with zero fucks given.

The only 'mental health' issues that will pop up will likely come from quota hires looking for an excuse to be off work.

I never looked at execution as punishment.
I've always felt it was a delivered promise to the public that a particular person will never never commit another heinous act.

The Feeeeelz were strong in that derp.  There's enough people willing to throw the switch or push the plunger. They usually have more volunteers than needed from what I understand.

most who make a living in corrections dont really care. I have had great inmates die, men I have had real conversations with over years, I may think about them from time to time, but I don't miss them. Emotion isn't part of the deal inside, the ones that catch feelings end up burning out or turning out.

One of the next ones up is Bruce Ward, who was sentenced to death for strangling an 18 year old female gas station attendant in 1989.  

In 1977, he pled guilty to manslaughter after strangling a woman in Pennsylvania.

I could flip the switch and go for ice cream.  Call me whatever name you like.

Even after my mom and I watched an illegal murder someone in cold blood I still was opposed to the death penalty but after spending several years working in a maximum security prison (as a nurse) I am convinced there are people on this planet that NEED TO DIE.  

If given the chance I would push that button anytime they asked me to.  I don't give a shit about "impressing" anyone here, especially bleeding hearts who clearly haven't seen evil face to face.

I can see where the taking of another man's life (no matter the circumstances) could bother a person.  

I would guess that it takes a certain personality who is able to see things in terms of strictly black and white without any varying shades of gray to do that sort of job.

I totally agree.

We should bring back gladiator style executions so they can fight back and ultimately get crushed.

It should be televised too.

Somewhere there is a video - has been posted here - of American soldiers taking German POW's - standing them against a tree - firing squad executes him. Put him in a box - cart him off - bring the next one. Members of the firing squad never changed IIRC. I would bet those GI's slept just fine.
