Its good for deterrence and protects the innocents. We should worry about good justice, not being humane to sick criminals. We should require DNA proof for executions - that would solve the problem of "executing the innocent" and we can still have the death penalty as a deterrent to help boost our justice system.

Being aware of these scams I try to engage them in long meaningless email exchanges. But they made a blinding mistake on the parrot scam. The said it weighs 3lbs. Ever seen a 3 lb oven ready chicken? Damned site bigger than an African Grey. Anyway they sent a shipping notice using frames lifted from a genuine pet transport companies site. Halfway down it changed from parrot to puppy. So I have emailed the idiot back telling him he is being scammed by the transport company he set up! He said they made a genuine mistake· I have informed him that no transport company ships a puppy as an animal, it would say dog! I love winding these people up!
