Georgia: Bill to Replace Electric Chair With Guillotine

Most humain death would be to die l8ke Michael jackson. You know people so.etime orgasm when on that drud

ewwww sounds like an appointment at jiffy lube

This was in 1996.... and he failed to get the bill through...

There are currently no plans, here in Georgia, to replace the state's electric chair...

Yes there really is.

If I was in a death row's shoes, at least juice me up with some painkillers. It's all about pain isn't it?

This thread reminds me of another thread that wondered why the govmt was buying up a shitload of guillotines.

That's because pushing the gun nuts to revolution didn't work out, so now maybe they'll give Apocalyptic Christians a try.

They have to get some group to revolt, so they can step in ruthlessly to suppress us, requiring us to be "rescued" from our own Government by the UN et al.

That's one theory anyway.

aH.E.M.

Why can I find no evidence that the government purchased 30,000 guillotines? A few websites mention this but offer no evidence to back the claim up.

Where's the evidence, I'd really like to see it.

Because they never actually did... all the threads here on GLP that claimed this, were fake and showing pictures of an Art Sculpture and had web link references to prove it.... so this was successfully debunked.

No there really isn't.

Even the OP's linked article, references the fact that this was news from March of 1996!

Infact.

Doug Teper, is not even a member of the current Georgia General Assembly.

You're conscious during some few seconds after the cut...

If someone deserves the death penalty, nobody has a right to bitch about the execution. And that goes for it's method and whether or not it's painful. as far as I'm concerned, it should be as painful as possible. All you pussies can kiss my ass.

[March 5, 1996; based upon news report]

I think this was shot down many years ago,

Long enough to say 'The Lord's Prayer'?

Honestly, I would much rather die by guillotine than electric chair!!

First, only MOST of your nervous system is detached. Some of it is in your neck and head, including your brain, brain stem, and part of the spinal cord, which together form the central nervous system (CNS).

Second, pain is a sensation that is ultimately delivered by your brain, not your pain receptors. It's the same with other senses: sight is just your brain's interpretations of signals from your eyes, sound is your brain's interpretation of signals from your ears, etc. Phantom limb syndrome is a good example of this: even when all of the nerves responsible for sensation in the severed limb are severed, the limb can still be "felt" by the victim, and often times the sensation is one of pain and discomfort, especially when the limb is lost to trauma. This is real, documented medical science, by the way. Nothing hokey.

Third, French experiments showed that at least one victim responded to auditory stimuli for a while after being decapitated, so sensory information IS still being delivered to the brain.


So I mean since we can't ask someone whether or not it hurts, we can't REALLY know (unless maybe by doing a brain scan at the moment of decapitation), but I think it would hurt like hell. And science doesn't disagree.

So what...that's better than having your brain fried!

You are so incredibly wrong. You still have consciousness for several minutes and your heart still beats as well. it is like being paralyzed, seeing your head away from your body and slowly dying. It is a most horrendous death because you are not officially dead until heart beat stops, and oxygen is depleted after your head is lopped off - which takes some time. That's why you can still look around, blink, etc...

It won't affect the crime rate a bit - guaranteed! Public whippings as is done in some countries (bare ass whippings - not lashings) with a cane on the other hand would and has brought crime rates down!

P.S. Awesome pic you have OP........

Your brain is no longer attached to your body. There is no pain if the CNS is no longer intact, since your brain can no longer receive messages from pain receptors!

^^ this.

Well, it's a copy from China where they have some method of harvesting the organs immediately. I think they use firing squad, however, so this method here would eliminate all that lead into the environment.

You don't get it. Re-read the post.

Your brain doesn't NEED to be attached to your body to feel pain. Even if there were no pain receptors, all you need is the brain to feel pain, especially after the trauma of decapitation. And the CNS IS still intact except for the most of the spinal cord.

stop behaving like muslims and end death penalty.

You won't see your head away from your body because you'll have a sack over your head, lol :P

Yes, it was read twice and never voted on. It died 17 years ago. Bury the fucker already!

Unless you can show newly introduced legislation, I call Bull Shit.

Yep... This Guillotine business stinks of Sharia BS.

Phantom limb pain does NOT happen instantaneously. It happens much later after the fact, during the recovery process and onward, as the brain is trying to make sense of no longer receiving information from the limb.

Besides the obvious cruel punishment...

...who would want the liver of some violent murdering rapist who spent the last 20 years in jail smoking and eating GMO jail food. Probably has a history of drugs and alcohol too.

...also, yes, your brain would still be processing auditory and visual stimuli...because your eyes and ears are attached to your head! But any pain felt in the trunk or extremities would not be felt because the messages would never make it to the brain.
