Yeah it would depend on the situation. I’d like to think I’d get involved regardless. But, I’ve never been and hopefully will never be in the situation. Interesting hypothetical though. Definitely not something I run through my head all the time on my commute haha.

I can agree with that.

That’s a reasonable view. I agree with just about everything you’ve said. I don’t see how its a religous judgement necessarily though.

Yeah nothing has come out showing it has any tangible positive benefits. Shocking I know haha.

I appreciate your points and they are valid.I agree with you for the most part honestly. If there was video evidence of them committing the crimes I could see expediting the process. But with AI now even that isn’t 100%. The most reasonable argument for it I’ve heard goes something like the following. The person being put to death should never have the opportunity to experience happiness again. Which they will have the opportunity to do while incarcerated. They will enjoy a book, make a friend, have a good conversation or enjoy drugs/exercise. I don’t really have any empathy for a serial rapist and I don’t personally believe a person like that deserves or is capable of any type or rehabilitation.

Yes that would be a better outcome but, absolutely a much bigger risk. Im a particularly big/strong guy. I’ve spent a couple years training 2 martial arts disciplines lately. I also grew up a middle school, high school and college wrestler. I still don’t see a way I could be 100% sure I wouldn’t be fataly injured by getting involved, unless I had a gun. Ideally nobody dies but its such a crazy huge risk to attack someone with a weapon.

Oh yeah I draw a heavy distinction between those two things. In fact, according to my moral compass, not killing someone actively engaging in murder would be immoral. Like if one person is stabbing an innocent person, green light 1000%. But thats just my morals.

I recognize that sentiment. I’ve heard arguments that a person can/will eventually find a level of happiness/contentment while incarcerated. They will eventually enjoy a book or have a friend. Same can’t be said for their deceased victims.

B and E are the strongest cases against it in my opinion. I think C could be mitigated with new practices. A is arguable dependent on the individuals morals, ethically, youd have a better argument. D feels like we just haven’t tried, what about a FAT dose of fent or a gunshot to the head. I’d be fine with killing convicted serial rapists, serial murderers and serial pedophiles. But that brings up B, wrongful convictions happen all the time and you’re right, it is final.

Yeah, its tough because I feel like if we KNOW a person has commited atrocities, kill em. But, there have been so many cases of wrongful conviction it gets messy.

Surely these cuts mean our taxes will drop dramatically… right…

Never heard of it, but, I am dumb…

I used to love the ratchet and clank series. But I haven’t had a sony console since the PS2

Damn I haven’t played an RE game since probably RE6. I’ve always loved horror movies but I think I’m too much of a big baby to play horror games regularly.

My numbers were not contradicted. Look at the table on page. 32. If you don’t count jails, group homes, “unknown”, or cars as public places your total is around 18% taking place in public. I recognize that the rates wouldnt likely be even among modes of suicide. But, you’re asking for data thats incredible difficult to specifically find. My original statement is that public suicides are uncommon but not unheard. The data I provided supports that statement. I will absolutely concede that I haven’t been able to link specific modality to public though. If you find data that disproves the below please provide it.

Natural area (park, woods, open land)

1,816 =4.4%

Street / highway 1,163 =2.8%

Hotel / motel 946=2.3%

Parking lot / garage / public transport 718= 1.7%

Park / playground / sports area 330 = <1%

Bridge 316 = <1%

Commercial / retail area 316 = <1%

Railroad tracks 256 = <1%

Other location 1,321 =3.2%

Oh yeah stews and sauces are perfect for the freezer!

I’ve prepped grapeleaves as a side for my meal once. I make them the way my grandma taught me, vegetarian with rice and a ton of lemon juice. I’ll definitely look into the things you talked about more!

Yeah freezing works well for me when I make meat sauces. But I don’t usually freeze whole muscle meat that way.

Interesting! I do really like lentils! Typically when I make them I mix with cooked quinoa and very spicy seasonings. I’m American but my roots are Syrian.I unfortunately haven’t learned to cook much Middle Eastern food, outside of kibbeh, grape leaves and hummus.

Yeah, second autopsy wasn’t released and the statement he made is completely false as of current information available.
