If you did something bad enough to get on deathrow in the US I believe you deserve the conditions. Why should murders and rapists be comfortable? Their victims sure weren't.
Amen to that
I think the argument though is that there's been people sentenced to death that were later proven innocent
I totally agree
Agreed!!!
@@RedRoseSeptember22 agree to whom ? ?
If I was on death row, my last meal would be an Asian sesame grilled tofu with extra duck and soy sauce, and a strawberry kiwi milkshake... I'm deathly allergic to all 3 of these things, and if I'm going to die, I'd rather do it myself than wait for lethal injection.

A man named Charles Justice got an early parole when he made improvements to the electric chair by replacing the leather restraints with metal hooks that held the inmate’s wrists more tightly against the electrodes, allowing him to leave the prison after serving just 8 years on a 25 year sentence. His freedom didn’t last long though. A few months later he was back in the same prison, this time for first-degree murder and was sentenced to death by the same electric chair he had improved
What an irony, I say.
One might say his brain was a bit... shocking
This sounds like one of those YT shorts where they show a clip from Twilight or something and narrate it "The lonely guy staes across the room at the girl with long hair. Their eyes meet, but they don't know eachother. Later, the guy..." you know what I'm saying
The United States is NOT a democratic republic. It is and was founded as a Constitutional Republic. The mob doesn’t rule, might want to go back and study our government type again or read the Constitution. You’re welcome.

he can't, oth3erwise China will seem reasonable
He really made several really dumb errors in this video. He failed to mention any of the countries in the middle east and north africa where apostasy is a capital crime. He also said the US is technically a democratic republic @02:29 , but that word democratic, or democracy is not mentioned in the declaration of independence, the US constitution, the bill of rights or in any US state constitution. The word democracy or democratic is totally missing, because the founding fathers made it a constitutional republic. Sometimes, I feel like these kinds of errors are intentional.
They also have a Great Quality of Life with little crime and VERY Low Taxes.
Small note; UK judges do not and have never used a gavel. In the UK only auctioneers use them. Famously, Lord Justice Geoffrey Lawrence, the Brit who was the Chief Justice at the Nuremberg Trial, was loaned a gavel by the senior US judge; he never used it. When he wanted to shut someone up, he stared at them in the eye, and would tap his Mont Blanc fountain pain gently on the desk. That always shut them up. It's called gravitas.
Excellent point...👍👍
The UK just killed anyone with an Irish name or who was brown skinned. How does it feel to bow to a German family with deep nazi ties? 😂
Most judges in the USA don't actually use the gavel either. It's more symbolic of authority.
Imagine getting pulled over by the execution bus for going 5 over the speed limit.

It’s true Texas has a very harsh prison system. However Texas is one of only a few states that automatically give compensation to anyone who has been falsely imprisoned and then exonerated. They also give more money than any other state. $100,000 for every year served. Most states you have to fight for years with lawsuits and you end up getting a fraction of that amount if anything at all.
Texas is also one of the few states that allows a person who was falsely imprisoned to sue the detectives, lawyer, or even the judge.
Do you live in Texas just curious
@@Suisfonia I wonder who the judge would be in *that* lawsuit!
@@rodriguezmauricio8173 If you mean me, no, but I do have quite a few friends who do. Though frankly I wish I did, either that state or Florida. Though in the case of Texas, I'd rather live on the outskirts rather in the big city.
Fat lot of good money is to a person who has just been executed for something they did not do, plus the families wont be jumping for joy. The fact they have such a policy in Texas shows how often their justice system is wrong and should not be allowed to kill people. Texas comes across as a kill them and ask questions latter state! And I seriously doubt some judges are level headed enough to be balanced and fair. There is too much politics in the US justice system and its barmy that politics plays a part on who can be on the Supreme Court. Politics has no place in any legal system.
Given that there are some barmy sentencing of over a 100 or 200 years inside! How many 150 to 200 year old people do the judges know? Given these sentences are already harsh there is not justification for the death penalty.
I’m actually glad that I watched to the end. Taiwan is truly an interesting place. Not good or bad… Just full of different cultures and beliefs.

I used to work for the Arkansas Department of Corections. Fried chicken as a last meal was used as a nod to "frying" or being put in the electric chair.

Of course, it was a documentary with that lesbian prositute lady that had killed several "potential customers" I forgot her name but will never forget what happened when they told her the camera's were off, they asked her if she was really guilty and she started crying saying "it doesn't matter, I am tired, don't tell them it wasn't me, please just let them kill me" and began talking nonsense about "how proud she was of her kills" the moment the wardens arrived because they heard her crying. She had been in prison for many years due to them never really finding the conclusive proof that it was her, but she had been "admitting" to several cases for years, all which the police never found proof of because she was tired and "just wanted to go"
So whenever I see this lady in videos (she was blonde with shoulder length curly hair and a bitter expression, she's hard to miss) on UA-cam and people go "What a monster!: I feel for her, she was mistreated and violated often by "customers" that beat her up instead of paying her
I heard in China if the family of the victim is willing to forgive you and a financial settlement is agreed upon between both families you can get your sentence commuted to life , I watched a documentary about it as well
I do love that China takes white collar crime seriously. However, they have put people to death because of it which seems like a bit much.
Then again, I don't know all of the details of those crimes and the extent of the victims' (if there are any besides the state) suffering.
In Belarus the trial and act of execution can take up to 2 years. The prisoners family is notified only of the death the day after. No location of the burial. The execution is done by a bullet at in the base of the skull from a corrections officer. Executions do happen but they are relatively rare there compared to some countries.
In India, the gallows are in a closed room and are out of bounds for any unauthorized person. What you have shown is of British era. As per the jail manual, the convicts face is covered with a black cloth while being led to the gallows to ensure that he doesn't get a heart attack at the sight of the noose. A news article on Kasab's execution mentioned this.

The thing about Hanging in Japan with the buttons is the same as what they do with firing squads. Usually there is one rifle that is loaded with a blank so that the guards don't know who had it.
you got it backwards.
all the rifles are blank but 1
if only one rifle had a blank then all the shooters are killers but the one with a blank
@@Flowmaster925 I think you have it wrong, because there needs to be more than one live round in case of a bad shot. And don't say the riflemen are always experts who never miss, because anyone can flinch especially under emotional stress. Logic dictates one random blank round in the group gives each of the riflemen some reasonable doubt they fired a live round, and that is all that is necessary.
That doubt in itself can be the conscience killer. Knowing that you for sure did it could be tied with upholding the law or whatever. But the fact that you maybe did it or maybe did not do it can make you feel even more guilty.. I don't know if that's just me but yeah
@@officerahmo I think it’s just you. Like the 5 buttons rule, it’s better to not know who did it because you have a 20% chance of doing it but 80% chance of not doing it.
@@zariftahmidshoeb3487 Valid point, I'm just saying it from my point of view.
I worked on a Death Row unit in the deep South for over 13 years (I won't say which one). In all my time there, I only knew one convict that I (and anyone who read his transcripts) believed to be innocent. Thankfully, he was released. The rest of them deserved to be where they were. Prison isn't supposed to be easy, but we (staff) did what we could to keep everyone safe and in accordance with the law. Honestly, we even hoped the Feds would come in because it would've been better for everyone.
Edit: The last meal here comes from the kitchen.
They should have life sentences instead. The death penalty should be abolished worldwide.

The awful conditions conflict me. On one hand my first instinct is to say that we're all human beings, and we don't treat fellow human beings so inhumanely.

@@henryroberts1233 what if there's proof beyond reasonable doubt?
@@putinski666 innocent people who were proven “beyond a reasonable doubt” get exonerated from death row in America multiple times per year. It’s not a fictional or hyperbolic scenario. A life sentence means maybe they can get out.
@@putinski666 To convict someone, you need to be beyond reasonable doubt, as you cannot claim that the suspect is guilty with reasonable doubt. That being said there can be cover ups, or new evidence which serves to change that quota.
@@generaljuno6895 in that case, life sentences are worse. There's evil in this world that the law cannot see because the "law" themselves manipulate evidence sometimes. Some things just cannot be controlled. But if we get lenient because of this factor, we'll never get anywhere. Just look at the south American cartels or mafias. So many innocent lives destroyed in horrific ways and ruined because people want to treat criminals humanely. They live like kings because of it, be it in jail or outside. Where's the justice in that?
I read a long time ago that in places like Iran, only the victim's family (if not involved in the crime) can choose to forgive the murderer and request blood money as a substitute for death and the judge can then issue a prison term (or the family can instead request the death penalty) . Interestingly there are almost 200 such cases every year where the murderer is forgiven and is spared death and instead gets a prison term. I find this interesting because the death penalty is also seen as a relief for the victim's family and only they can waive it.
Here in canada the condemned didn't actually know the exact date of their execution until the hamgman would visit him/her on death row a few hours before the hanging was to take place.

I'm probably biased, but when we had the death penalty in the UK it was all carefully worked out to minimise suffering and I think probably the most 'humane' it could ever be; the condemned would spend 2 weeks (had to include 2 Sundays) in a special double width cell with guards to keep them company, games to play and visits etc, the cell was very cleverly designed so that there were two doors in from the main walkway, one straight off the walkway and the other through a small wood panelled entry room with coat hooks and a bench (the condemned would enter the cell through that one). At 9am the condemned would be sat at a table with their back to the walkway door, the hangman would walk in straight from the walkway and as the prisoner was getting up and turning to see them, they;ed be spun the other way and have their arms pinioned behind their back, then the hangman would take them through the other door to the coat room, they'd be disorientated, but not scared as they knew what was through there, just a small room with coat hooks, which was of course never was a coat room; it was just fake wooden walls to hide the fact the room was the gallows chamber, they'ed then be hooded, noosed and dropped, sometimes within 13 seconds, so they'd not have time to recover from the shock.
The hanging was also careful, unlike in America (at the time anyway) where they'd be hung and strangle to death over half an hour, in the UK the condemned was weighed and measured against a preset table to determine the exact length of rope needed to snap the neck, for this the hangman would do a test drop with the rope weighted to pre stretch it and adjust it accordingly (too much drop and the head can be pulled off), The noose was also placed specifiably on the left shoulder so when it tightened it would travel round to the front to guarantee it would snap the neck rather than strangling them.
Theres a fantastic documentary on youtube called 'Capital Punishment in the UK - Hanging' which takes half an hour to go over all the process from conviction to death.
What about people who have very short necks,
You act like uk doesnt have a longer history than u.s and didnt have beheadings and other executions in the past
Your Point makes no real sense.
Beheadings occurred before America was founded. We are a lot older than the US so of course other less humane systems were used. We didn’t have the lethal injection back then or most other current technologies.
In fact I’m pretty sure your country was founded on giving the native Americans the death penalty by much more severe methods than any mentioned so far 🤷♂️
Wtf
Do you not watch that programme on bbc2 where they take cases from the past couple of centuries and reevaluate the integrity of the execution?
Some of the evidence of the time would be laughed out of court today!
There is no reason for capital punishment - the scandanavian countries have proven this time and time again, and if you're really that vengeful - arguably having one's freedom justifiably robbed is more punishment that a quick act of revenge.
Those who jump on the right-wing wagon of "they get their meals and a roof" etc clearly aren't ready for the 21st century nor have experienced any form of long term illness or major impediment to their quality of life.
And as for the US... Its practically capitalist sponsored prejudice and persecution of minorities and the poor.

@@user-bo6rd8vv6e well then i'm sure you would love the sentences rapists get in the US, their sentences is like giving candy to the rapist and slapping the victims front and back hand.

Finally! A popular video with Mongolia in it, not very well known but known abouts history but it grew smaller so everyone forgot about it, plus im very happy because it's my country! 😺💓 0:59
The fact that mexico has abolished capital punishment when their own cartels carry out THE crimes MOST deserving of capital punishment, is apalling.
The death sentence will have no impact on Mexican cartels. To fix that, the US need to fix their drug problem and stop making guns so easy for these cartels to get!
Mexico should invoice the US $100bn per year until the US gets their act together!
Paying your executioner was common in earlier times, at least for the more elite prisoners, those who could be expected to have their heads cut off. This was to ensure that the executioner would be diligent and cut the head off in a single blow rather hacking away at the neck over several blows.
The peasant:oh no
You say "oh no"

Holy Crap!!!!! I knew that a lot of the countries in Asia and Eastern Europe like Belarus were quick to carry out the sentence but having just 2 minutes to prepare before it's carried out is absolutely freaking nuts
I rather it be faster personnaly if that was me waiting 22 yrs in basically hell just to die is worse
@C J maybe for some ppl personnaly tho the chances of getting out is slim so u most likely would die in prison I would rather end my misery than sit there goin crazy
Better that way
As opposed to the 20 years some US citizens are on death row?
What's more inhumane 🤔....
How long did the victim get? Did the victim get a last meal and at least 2 minutes?
I wonder if Iwao Hakamada has a Guinness World Record for that. If not, he more than deserves one.
He actually does though I'm pretty sure that's a record no one wants.
I wouldn't even want that record for 10 seconds.
12:57 Is that a gif of Dean Winchester? Lol 😂
I’m kinda relieved that Australia does not have a death row but all those things are just brutal
I would want my last meal to be with my whole family, (most are around in different parts of the U.S.) and my BFF Jaida, we have been friends since Kindergarten, (1 decade of friendship so far!)
I didn't see the word with and thought you wanted to eat your family and BFF and had to read it multiple times to make sure you weren't a cannibal
Wow! That's a lot of unnecessarily specific info you shouldn't be sharing.
so you are a 16 years old future murder ?
@@oscarvazquez2341 hahahaha 😂👌🏻
Don't give Your menu Yet
i find it kind of weird how they spend tens of thousands of dollars keeping someone in death row for years and allow them 15 dollars for a last meal
The money spent on death row is for not just one persons punishment, but for all citizens to deter them from doing heinous acts. The last meal doesn't really matter, whether its a lot or a little. Id give em like $30, Enough for pizza and wings just because i'm a softie, then put em to the chair/Needle
That's because they are making money to keep them there, then as soon as their cash flow stops they get cheap af.
@@johntaranto29 funny how the death penalty and even prison in general are actually ineffective when it comes to preventing crime... death penalty should be an option for people serving life and life should only be reserved for those who cannot exist in society without being a threat. Other than that there needs to be a recharged focus in rehabilitation rather than punishment.
@@KamikazeMoth you are correct with this, take a look at countries like norway or sweden. their prisons look more like a proper living space and they give the prisoners options, and ways to learn or contribute to society. ultimately crimes are way lower there and the rehabilitation actually works, as compared to what happens in the US where the atmosphere of prisons actually encourage more crimes.
@@heroninja1125 I can speak from my own experience with the united States justice system. It has more negative than positive built in.
So the whole south allows the death penalty? 🤦
My last meal would be a two pound steak french fries from McDonalds and a whole Pumkin Pie. Mr. X
You leave oatmeal raisin cookies out of this. It's them cookies with nuts in them that are evil.
😂
Oatmeal raisin cookies are the best.
It didn't always take years between sentencing & execution in the US. For example...On 21 March 1935 Albert Fish was sentenced to death & executed on 16 January 1936. Likewise Charles Starkweather was sentenced to death on 23 May 1958 & then he was executed on 25 June 1959.
Depend of the case. I think. If still needed investigation on case, it might be longer.
Those were both prior to the Gregg v Georgia decision in 1976. Gregg vs Georgia forced the "two part trial" where guilt is decided, and then penalty afterward. Jury must decide whether aggregating factors apply, to qualify for death. They can hear mitigating factors, that can sway them against death. Jury then votes on whether to give death. Most states require a unanimous vote for death.
Since Gregg, there have been further decisions requiring the courts to "check the boxes" to ensure the death sentence is legal and correctly applied. That's what takes so long.
I occurs to me that that last sentence sounds a bit irritated. Understand that I mean nothing of the sort. Although I live in Texas, and am staunchly pro DP, I WANT the reviews in place. I want assurance that the condemned was given a full chance to make his case.
It always irritates me that someone is sentenced to death, but then stay in prison for 20+ years. Usually die from old age or natural causes. I do understand the fear of killing an innocent person, but then why sentence anyone to death if you’re so unsure of our court systems? On top of that, bing in isolation for years is extremely cruel and sick. People go crazy…..crazier. Just end them, as long as it’s a sure thing. Now that we have DNA and better ways to be SURE we have the right person, I don’t understand the delay.
Albert Fish was an unbelievably horrid person.
Those are the exception to the general rule. Doesn't really mean shit
Home cooked food from your family as your last meal is honestly the most fucked up shit ever.
Imagine standing there pouring your heart into the dish you're making, knowing its for someone you will never see again.
Wow. Just... wow.
4:14 [Hey Papyrus... Wha-what happened here?]
As someone who’s spent almost a decade in prison I can only imagine who awful it would be if u were a death row prisoner & never knew the execution date. You’d have to go to sleep & wake up everyday wondering “will I be alive tomorrow, next week, next month?” You’d never be able to make any plans & id imagine it would kill(at least initially) any motivation to make ANY goals or plans. At least in the US u know you’ll have a decade or more before u even get close to being executed. Here, at least u can plan a visit with family members a month from now & KNOW you’ll actually be around for it, u can start a relationship with someone(penpal, new friend, etc) & feel there’s a purpose to it, u can sign up for school or vocational classes knowing you’ll be around to finish the course, etc, etc. As a death row inmate in a country that might execute u any day I imagine you’d go through a stage of “why bother? I might be dead tomorrow.” Although even in the US things can still get flipped upside down on u. I remember hearing a story based on the death row inmates of a certain facility. On this particular day two inmates were supposed to be executed & another guys execution date was like a month or two down the road. Anyway on the day those two inmates were supposed to be executed the governor called & commuted the sentence to life in prison for the guy who was supposed to be executed second. Since the facility was prepared for two executions they just moved the next guy up who’s execution date wasn’t supposed to be carried out for another few months. Since all death row inmates were all housed on the same wing that guy had to hear the celebration from the guy who just escaped death & now was dealt the surprise of having to take his place
Considering the the terrible things most of them did to their victims, what they put the victims families throughout the lives they ruined I don’t feel bad for them at all, they’ve got it too good in some places
God damn. That’s a crazy story.
What state & when was the one where they moved the date up?
@@elliottcorbin9522 I can’t remember the specifics. Actually I heard it on UA-cam. They did give names, dates and where it happened, it’s just been a while since I heard it so I can’t remember.
Yeah I don’t care. If a child molester, rapist, or murderer were on the death row, no sympathy whatsoever.
Very amazed I love watching things that educate my brain instead of all that b**** good to learn something new everyday
3:33
North Koreans:
In my country, Norway, the last execution for a non-war crime took place in 1876, by decapitating with an axe. The death penalty was abolished in 1905, except for war crimes. After the WW2, a handful of executions took place for high treason, by firing squads.
Yeah I worked for a CP prison. They got canteen, jobs, rec time, and showers in there cell. Their behavior dictated their freedoms within correctional facility and the CPs we're actually honor dorm material. They stayed out of trouble. Yes CP had cell mates. As a CO I was actually fond of my CP population.
I've heard similar things from formerly incarcerated guys. Then they also said that some of the more dangerous guys were the guys in for life.
@@deanpruit4216 When they snap they have nothing to lose. But day to day basis most of the trouble came from guys who committed petty crime who decided to raise their custody level by assaulting, destroying state property, ect.
@@deanpruit4216 ...yeah, they lounge around on TAXPAYERS dime...what a waste of money, especially when we have SO MANY law abiding and needy Americans out here who don't get to have food, shelter, clothing, entertainment, and an education. How fair and right is that?
@@superpredator4096 what do you do with criminals then ?
@@alexstreet9470 Easy...murderers, child molesters and rapists get the death penalty and carried out within the shortest amount of time...less than a year. Why waste taxpayer money on people not worth allowing to live (they contribute nothing positive to the world)? They provide psychiatrists with brains to study and that's it. There's something to be said in favor of eugenics...something that was actually applied in the US BEFORE Germany did.
Capital punishment should be used as punishment for serious crimes like murder, human trafficking, treason, actual war crimes, etc.
Personally, I'd throw in child abuse/ sex crimes against children/murder of children being punishable by death too. I've seen and read about too many crimes against children and infants, and it both breaks my heart anyone could ever hurt/kill a baby or child & it infuriates me how many times the aggressors gets away with their evil acts.
There are two crimes here in Britain that are still officially capital offences. Treason to the Crown. And Piracy
Only 55 countries use the death penalty, and that is shockingly high? That number is FAR to low if you ask me. The only problem with death row in America is the cost and how long they take to carry it out.
The fact that there are a ridiculous amount of innocents on death row doesn't come into the equation?
I agree with you that there is a problem with innocent people going to prison. To be convicted of murder you are supposed to be guilty" beyond a shadow of a doubt".
"last meals aren't guaranteed all around the world", in some countries prison guards still stuff pizzas in the executed corpses of former inmates just to make sure they never get a last meal....
😬😬
I’m from Wa state (USA for those who don’t know) and my brothers cousin, who came up here from New Orleans in 2005 (mind you, literally 2 days after he got out of prison in Louisiana for a horrible crime he committed when he was 15) definitely deserves the death penalty for what he did less than 5 months after he got here! But, since he did it here in WA he got triple life plus 175 years instead. And, at first, I thought “good! He can never get out!” However, what he’s done since he’s been inside prison proves, to me, that sometimes capital punishment is worth it. If there are people who even behind bars, in isolation, continue to wreak havoc on the world and leave behind nothing but pain and suffering, I don’t think they deserve chance after chance when they’re just a waste of oxygen. 🤷🏻♀️ but, that’s just my opinion. Agree or disagree, I don’t really care. I just don’t need a bunch of soap box riders commenting under my post trying to “tell me why I’m wrong” when I said it’s my personal opinion! My phone battery doesn’t need to suffer due to a ton of notifications from “internet warriors” when it’s my opinion and I don’t care if you disagree. 🙅🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️✌🏼😂
im gonna be annoying and say "k"
@@combdude I wouldn’t expect anything else from Homer Simpson lmao! 😂😂😂
Sure
Some crimes just deserve death.
So what crimes did your cousin commit? If you can elaborate, please. This is interesting
9:11, something that should be discussed women on death row in the US have way more freedoms than men.
A video comparing women in prison versus men in prison, on death row would be very interesting.
On December 10, 1988 is when Canada got rid of Corporal Punishment.
But here in Canada, hanging was our form of Corporal Punishment, but our last hanging was way back in 1962 in Toronto.
But on average 54% of Canadians believe we should bring back Corporal Punishment.
How about choosing all five methods? Imagine being electrocuted, gassed, shot, hung, and poisoned, all at the same time?
I have watched so many similar video's to this but might i say this is by far the best .instead of watching individual videos of the prison to death 💀 you can watch it all here with great narration 👌
They are NOT watched by “several wardens” during their showers. They are monitored by OFFICERS. A Warden runs the entire prison from his/her office. They don’t mingle with inmates the way you described. It shouldn’t take an officer to tell you that especially if you did your research.
In the UK and Australia, "Wardens" are the name for Guards...while the "Warden" is called a Governor. Other places like India with UK Influenced Systems also use Wardens as the name for Guards...because Warden means Guardian. It depends on Who Wrote The Script and if they were British or not.
Different titles in different countries.
3:35 I work as a security warrant officer in a colonial settlement. I overwatch convicts and there are 3 who were sentenced either for commenting on a UA-cam video or liking the wrong UA-cam videos. So there are places in the world, where you can be sent to prison or a colony for just pushing the like button.
A serial killer on death row is given a bowl of cereal for his last meal. After he ate the last bite, the guard said "damn, you killed that huh?" 😂
Imagine one day you get the death sentence for a crime you didn’t commit, then you wait 48 years expecting death the next day. Then you get released with nothing.
48 years wasted years of life. In torturous conditions.
You'd live in fear for the rest of your life after being pardoned, leading to suicide. Couldn't imagine myself being in that situation. 😮
The five button guilt reducing method was similarly used in firing squads. In some squads, there would be five shooters even though they only needed one. Four of them were loaded with a blank round and one with a real one. The guns were handed out at random so no one knew who took the actual shot.
Which is a nice thought in theory, but doesn’t work in reality. An experienced shooter can tell if they fired a live round or not.
@@ELSappi believe it was so the family’s of those being executed didn’t know who it actually was so they couldn’t single them out .
Like medieval times the executioner wore a mask so nobody knew who they were so they couldn’t hate them off duty in a nut shell.
I agree with OP a skilled shooter such a police officer would definitely know the difference.
You can tell by the spent round and the way the gun fires if it’s a blank or live round.
You don’t « only need one » shooter in a firing squad. Firing squads don’t aim for the head, but for the chest (generally for the heart). Its possible to miss the vital organ and only injure.
Where one rifle bullet might fail, 5 will not. In a firing squad generally only one of the rifle fires a blank. This gives the squad members the possibility of being innocent of the execution.
Its more likely if they have 5 shooters, there is only *one* blank. Not four - one person can miss the target and only badly injure the condemned. Which would be horrific. Four, that ensures the job is done.. But all five can tell themselves they fired the blank.
Watching from Greece.hi everybody.
Interesting video.
Need more countries with death row
