Once a year, prisoners with life sentences are put in a room with a single button. If the button is pushed, the room is sealed and nitrogen is pumped into the room whIle oxygen gets sucked out. The prisoner peacefully falls asleep forever and his family receives 50% of the estimated cost for the remainder of his sentence.
Tell me how this is a bad idea, seems like a win/win for the taxpayers and their families.

Just use them as slave labor and let the family of the victim decide if they are to be put down or not.

sorry you specified it was only 50%, so they only net 13.5 million for murdering a bunch of people
my bad

I have a better idea: How about everyone sentenced to death is immediately shot in the head the second the trial is over. That would save the taxpayers a whole lot more.
Or you know, just shoot them in the head and don't give anyone any money.
Why compensate the family? Why give them a choice?
Just kill the criminal and stop pussy footing around.
There should not be a sentence greater than 5 years. Anything more either deserves death or slavery.

That's basically how China does it, but with a lethal injection van, pretty solid.
I'll admit my idea has some issues, but can we make this a death penalty thread now?
>>128076662
What if you were innocent or later found innocent?
>>128076949
Sure. Death penalty is to light.
Niggers don't fear death. Have you ever seen a nigger on death row? He has no fear. Do you know what they do fear? Torture. Instead of having a life sentence you should just be tortured for a year then killed.
That or real forced slavery like they still have in Africa. Force them to mine coal and other resources.
Or we could just hang them.

>giving them a choice
Why?
>>128075462
Suicide is an affront to God.
>>128075462
Let's give niggers millions of dollars
>>128075462
Just leave a coil of rope in each of their cells. After a few years, I'll get pretty tempting
>>128075462
Better yet
>doctors are allowed to assist you in suicide
>you need an approval from family members
>no outstanding debts or obligations
Would you do it? Would you even qualify?
or how about do the world a favor and just kys before committing any crimes
