The arson attack in a revered Kyoto animation studio killed 36 people and injured dozens more.
It’s trippy for such a technologically advanced country that they still do hangings
The Gundam Firing Squad is out for repairs, and they couldn’t find a pen to write his name in the Death Note.
This legitimately made me laugh
They are very conservative and toxic in many things sadly. It doesn’t sit right with their international image. The country of contrasts I guess.
Im not sure its any worse than any method done today outside of inert gas asphyxiation, which ironically has gotten a lot of pushback. If death penalty is done they should allow a choice of options a state could reasonably accomodate with the most humane one they can figure out as the default.
Death by snu-snu.
I don’t condone the death penalty.
But…
…that fucker killed 36 people by setting a building on fire. Let’s suppose that a few of them didn’t die by smoke inhalation, but actually being burned alive. That fucker burned alive people. One of the most painful deaths one can experience.
I’d say hanging (and again I don’t condone it!!!) is getting out easy.
But…
This is death penalty version of I’m not racist but
Considering how Japan’s justices system is as bad as the US there definitely shouldn’t be a death penalty in ANY circumstances
According to the autopsies most people died due to burns rather than smoke
Let the fucker hang, and that’s the least we could do
Ugh. Horrible.
Kinda sounds like you might be for the death penalty…
Nope. I already said that what I’m disagreeing with is OP saying that death by hanging is oh so barbaric, when the perpetrator burned people alive. Those victims didn’t have the chance of dying by hanging.
It’s like saying that I don’t agree with physical punishment for misbehaving kids. Let’s suppose that a kid skins another kid alive, and the father spanks him as punishment. I’ll say “nah, that’s wrong. Take him to a psychiatric center instead.” And if someone says “so barbaric that the kid got spanked instead of getting his ears pulled, which is more common,” I’ll say “bruh, that kid skinned someone alive!”
Yea, you sympathize and thus justify the secondary action. In this case that would be the death penalty.
Whatever you say, buddy. My abhorrence towards the death penalty is not up for discussion here, and I’m getting bored already.
Just rest assured that if you’re ever on death row, and it’s in my power to get you out of it, I will do it unconditionally.
Furthering this discussion is of no use to me. Have a nice evening.
I didn’t think they still had the death penalty even.
Out of the few kinds of crimes that I feel qualify for a Death Sentence…this is absolutely One Of Them.
