Given the plain fact that the only alternative is to allow a plague of Willie Hortons to descent on 'Merkin white wimmenfolk, this is indeed a thorny dilemma. You can see why Texas errs on the side of caution.

With Hellfires going for $60,000 a pop, wholesale, I don't think "efficiency" is quite what they have in mind. On the other hand, it still beats the death penalty, which is maybe why the LAPD wants to buy a few.

Easy for you to say ... you don't have to sort 'em out.

I wonder if the fans of state-sponsored death and destruction spectacles (they filled the Roman Coliseum, NASCAR stands, etc.) would be happy if we just faked a war against Eastasia, and fed them their daily ration of blood and gore in staged YouTube and Ogrish videos. Hollywood has this stuff down cold.

I also wonder how easily you could convince the conspiracy nutz that Obama is already doing exactly this. Because, really, <i>it's the only explanation, sheeple!!!!1!</i>

<i>But what’s going on in California represents <b>the worst of all worlds</b> — a massively expensive Potemkin operation in which hundreds of people are sentenced to death and no one is ever executed…</i> Yes, that's far worse than the world where innocent people are executed.

According to some stories, Pol Pot had people lined up for executions so that one bullet could kill more than one victim. If true, he must be on the list.
