We looked at a house that had an charcoal grill made as a brazen bull, I couldn't make this up if I tried

The realtor pointed it out as some sort of artsy bonus. The seller apparently paid a lot for it but couldn't take it with them

We didn't bid on the place, but I had already told the realtor if we bought the house I wanted that creepy-ass thing gone before we took the keys

Because it was probably used twice and then discarded as being impractical and dumb but remained in mythology and records.  Rope is all you need; and horses, or a tree, or a post and some fire, etc.

Half the shooter games in the 90's had a JackHammer Shotgun but nobody besides a collector or two ever saw one let alone had one. Like that.

Moral people instantly know the correct answer.   Immoral people don't understand even when told.

Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.

Imagine, Judge Dahmer sentences you to:
1 cup chili powder
1/2 cup of cumin
1/4 cup salt and black pepper
2 full garlic pods


For the stuffing:
2 pans of cornbread
2 pans of biscuits
1 stalk of celery
1 carrot

For 12 hours or until done.

The Brazen Bull.

The condemned is put inside a life-sized bronze bull.  Access is via a door in either the side or the ass of the bull.

A fire is lit beneath the bull.  The condemned is cooked.  Slow, but ultimately, 100% effective.

Question: how could it possibly be that this was never adopted as an execution standard in the US?

Torturing someone? Why? It just seems like sadism to me.

Vengeance is mine, sayeth the Lord.

If you want to execute someone then kill them in some fast and relatively painless way. Bonus points if its a bit messy too in that you want society to remember that they are killing someone and not just "putting them to sleep."

That's why I personally favor the bullet to the back of the head approach if an execution is necessary.

Quick efficient execution of people that are criminally unsafe for society is reasonable and arguably more human than locking them up for 60 years.
Torturing someone to death makes someone a sick murderer that is no better than the person that killed someone in a moment of rage, i would say it makes them worse because it's premeditated. They sit there and think about it all the time and get pleasure from it.

Nitrogen asphyxiation is the only form of execution that makes any sense. Just put the mask on the inmate and turn on the gas. After a minute he's fallen asleep without a hint of struggle. 10 minutes later and he's gone for good.

Quick, humane, cheap, reliable.

Honestly, if you could choose how you die, it's the one to pick.

It happens but is pretty mild. Your body has no idea it's suffocating, and by the time your brain stem is tripping off line and causing those convulsions there's not much oxygen left in your blood to fuel them.

Because the founders had no problem killing people who needed killing, but found the idea of needlessly torturing someone to death morally abhorrent to the point where they included an entire amendment to the Constitution to ensure that whatever sick fucks would manage to matriculate into positions of power in the government would have a hard legal bar against doing that kind of shit?
