Mumu bought a 100,000-volt pocket-sized taser as a gift for his wife.
Because it uses just 3 AAA batteries, he thought he could give himself a
test jolt without suffering too much. He was mistaken.
The directions said that a one-second burst would shock and disorient your
assailant; a two-second burst was supposed to cause muscle spasms and a
major loss of bodily control; a three-second burst would purportedly make
your assailant flop on the ground like a fish out of water. Any burst longer
than three seconds would be wasting the batteries.
...Reasoning that a one-second burst from such a tiny little ole thing
couldn't hurt all that bad....I decided to give myself a one-second burst
just for the heck of it. I touched the prongs to my naked thigh, pushed the
button, and ... HOLY MOTHER ..WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION...@!@$$!%!@*!!!

I'm pretty sure Jessie Ventura ran in through the side door, picked me up
in the recliner, then body slammed us both on the carpet, over and over and
over again. I vaguely recall waking up on my side in the fetal position,
with tears in my eyes, body soaking wet, both nipples on fire, testicles
nowhere to be found, my left arm tucked under my body in the oddest
position, and tingling in my legs. The cat was standing over me making
meowing sounds I had never heard before, licking my face, undoubtedly
thinking to herself, "Do it again, do it again!"

Oh sure, in all the Western languages plus. My so-so spelling and use
of profanity are mine, and not the school's fault.

At BYU you could also study spelling in modern Quechua, Aymara,
K'iche', Cachiquel and Orem :-)) ese. How about Yale? Our lab work in
bonehead geology was partly done in a canyon 10 minutes from my dorm.
Our undergrad bonehead science classes were first rate and taught by
real senior scientists. not grad students, in reasonable size classes.
Our dorms were clean and the food was good. How about Yale?

Outside, there was the Provo river on the edge of Campus, full of
Brown trout, further afield the Weber, the Colorado and the Green,
the whole Great Basin, multiple mountain ranges, and then there is
that Utah powder snow, incredible stuff. Much powder snow near New
Haven? :-))

At BYU more than half the student body, citizen and foreign, spoke
English and at least one foreign language, and we used the most
advanced civilian language labs in the country. The music dept did 3-4
fully staged operas a season. Operas, not some half-assed glee club
stuff. All the major US international banks, and all the US intell
agencies recruited heavily at BYU. Even some of the local Utah Guard
units were intel.

BYU tuition was low but the education was not cheap. Cheating was
almost non existent and considered shameful. And admissions and other
standards are much higher now than when I went there. Republican Utah
and BYU shaped my taste for community, centrist Democratic politics
and compromise. Mormons freely GAVE me an incredible educational
opportunity and I still owe them for it.

But BYU is not responsible for my spelling choices.

Everybody gets the death penalty in this life. The principle I like
is, . . . You shorten violently someone else's life . . . you get your
own life shortened. This guy sliced her over, and over and over and
over and over. Then he raped her, then finished her off, sliced her
some more, put her in her car trunk to rot, hopped a plane for
California and attacked two women there. He confessed.

He's stalled the system for 18 years, constantly a threat to other
prisoners. His defense? Bad upbringing. One thing folks forget is that
these folks often continue to kill in prison, where they carryout
death sentences on other prisoners at their leisure. I suggest folks
who favor life for these kinds of cases might walk some of the talk by
applying to work as guards, or even teachers in prison.

the lethal injection method in May. Brown admitted spending 34 hours
torturing, raping and slashing his little 22 year old girl victim
before he finished her off. I just do not understand the corrupted

No, 34 hours is how long Brown sliced, diced, raped, and sliced her
some more, BEFORE he killed her with his hands. Apparently, in police
circles Brown achieved a sculpted horror that outdid horrific
Hollywood. But back to the point: Executing Brown as a batting
volunteer. To me, killing a person with a ball-bat, swung full, and in
a regular rhythm, just doesn't seem like it could prolong life more
than for what I would guess might be 3-5 hits before death would come.
Especially if Brown were held down or tethered for the first 1-2
shots, similar to slaughtering a water buffalo. You got to figure that
out of nervousness maybe every other intended head shot is going to
smash a shoulder or a couple of ribs. And a shot to smash a knee joint
is just as likely to hit a thigh and do little to kill him. But all in
all, connecting with even one good or more likely 2 strong head shots
is very likely to start brain death. But getting back to the point,
torturing Brown for a long time, even for your normal ROFFIAN
whackjob, IS probably unrealistic. But JTs heart IS in the right
place.

Just speaking for myself, it would take a strong stomach, but I think
I'd give it a go. I'd be damn happy to be able to get in all 3-5 hits,
in a rain suit of course. Understand, I am just saying that IF there
is a problem for the State in getting someone to shorten this man's
life as per his sentence of death for the horrific murder of a young
girl, and no one was comming forward, I would give it a go. And you?
Its all really theoretical so why not speculate?

personally - prepared to "make it take 34 hours...and use" anything?

Just Curious,

...hey, you may well be, but...

No, 34 hours is how long Brown sliced, diced, raped, and sliced her
some more, BEFORE he killed her with his hands. Apparently, in police
circles Brown achieved a sculpted horror that outdid horrific
Hollywood. But back to the point: Executing Brown as a batting
volunteer. To me, killing a person with a ball-bat, swung full, and in
a regular rhythm, just doesn't seem like it could prolong life more
than for what I would guess might be 3-5 hits before death would come.
Especially if Brown were held down or tethered for the first 1-2
shots, similar to slaughtering a water buffalo. You got to figure that
out of nervousness maybe every other intended head shot is going to
smash a shoulder or a couple of ribs. And a shot to smash a knee joint
is just as likely to hit a thigh and do little to kill him. But all in
all, connecting with even one good or more likely 2 strong head shots
is very likely to start brain death. But getting back to the point,
torturing Brown for a long time, even for your normal ROFFIAN
whackjob, IS probably unrealistic. But JTs heart IS in the right
place.

Just speaking for myself, it would take a strong stomach, but I think
I'd give it a go. I'd be damn happy to be able to get in all 3-5 hits,
in a rain suit of course. Understand, I am just saying that IF there
is a problem for the State in getting someone to shorten this man's
life as per his sentence of death for the horrific murder of a young
girl, and no one was comming forward, I would give it a go. And you?
Its all really theoretical so why not speculate?

I have no doubt that I _could_ execute him by whatever method I wished or was
instructed to use. The difference is that I'd have no desire to (absolutely
pointlessly) "torture" him while doing it, nor would I follow what I know would
be illegal and I personally believe to be immoral instructions to do so.

IMHO a big part of the problem is the anti-death penalty folk drawing
an absolute line and using phony and frivelous appeals to jam the
system. AFAIK most states that still have the death penalty, limit it
to aggravated situations. For example, the US Supreme Court has
decided that firing squad and electric chair methods are
Constitutional. However, as in Washington's case, the tactic of the
"antis" is to challange in the courts ANY method as "cruel" and
"unusual," and in this case the method is lethal injection. And as I
said before, their tactics fill the prisons with violent repeat
murderers who rise in the prison hierarchies, maintain a regime of
continued murder and violence against other prisoners and make
rehabilitation of lesser criminals in prison an impossibility. The
"antis' also use endless delays to run costs of a successful execution
thru the roof, even after DNA testing, and sabotage the rule of law.
For the life of me I cannot see how these folks equate the horrors
they actively work to perpetuate, with taking a "moral position."

I am beginning to think that perhaps the only effective way to fight
the antis is to boycott attorneys who focus their pro bongo activities
on defending murderers convicted of aggravated murder, and explicitly
punishing complicit elected and appointed functionaries at the polls
and thru published exposure.

Who said anyone should be denied a trial and a lawyer. Listen up . . .
I said defending murderers CONVICTED of AGGRAVATED murder. Convicted
means they have ALREADY had their trial. I didn't say they shouldn't
work thru the political process to change the law. if thats their
issue. And I didn't say folk shouldn't vote whatever way they choose.
Capisch? It bothers me that a determined minority can turn our justice
system and corrections system into a hellish nightmare for the
majority of law abiders and law breakers, based on their need to
protect a few monsters that they personally would be too gutless to
guard, or even have the stomach to look at a photo of the victims, and
parade their hypocracy as if they were morally superior.

And at least one did neither...and still doesn't...

Don't even know what the F--- this means. As a kid I had goats and
chickens, and dogs. We ate the chickens (and rabbits and pheasants and
an occasional squirrel if hungry enough) and drank the goat milk. If
guinea pigs weren't rat like, or you could have milked them I would
have . . . . whatever.

still, you implied that folks shouldn't be allowed to exercise legal means
to prevent exectutions, if I read you correctly. As if executing someone
like the person you cite, was going to deter the next deranged soul from
doing something equally heinous. You almost seem to have some sick sort of

Executing monsters convicted of aggravated murder certainly does
prevent them from killing other prisoners and guards. That is who they
kill AFTER the bleeding hearts go home and there are no more billable
hours to suck out of public defender budgets. Or maybe no one is
murdered in the prisons in Pennsylvania? Who do you think kills in
prison and effectively turns some petty criminals' burglary, drug or
fraud conviction, into a death sentence? When the State is frustrated
in carrying out its death sentence for AGGRAVATED MURDER, the death
sentence is just passed on to the other prisoners and guards these men
prey upon in prison. Think about that for a moment.

My blood lust? What about the blood lust of the antis who think
nothing of the murdered victims who their protected monsters continue
to kill in prison? I've known 2 murderers and suspected another. Both
threatened me. One even tried to sue me. I faced one down and the
other suceeded in intimidating me. Criminals are one of the side
dishes if you work in the human services world. The one I suspected is
still running loose. And Ive been retired for 8 years. Criminals are a
major negative factor in the efficiency and effectiveness of US human
services.

And Tom, if murderers are so immune to discouragement by capital
punishment, why do most fight execution so much? Anyone who says that
a real threat to kill (or execute) is not scary, is a fool or has not
really been threatened. Being fearful for your life is an effective
motivator whether you believe it or not. It may be the only thing some
murderous assholes do understand. Sadly enough.

generally a gang member or the like. The real fruitcakes are avoided like
the plague by the general prison population. Ask someone who works in a
prison, or was incarcerated in one.

I did. And, I think you have no clue what you are talking about.

criminals are part of living in society. Don't flatter yourself that you
share the problem more than the average individual, as I suspect you do not.

the depth of this insight astounds me. To the point of wishing to stand on a
table and yell, "No ****?!!"

And Tom, if murderers are so immune to discouragement by capital

because they don't wish to die?? Were they deterred from committing the
crime?

really been threatened. Being fearful for your life is an effective
motivator whether you believe it or not. It may be the only thing some

you cite a case where the perpetrator is clearly mentally disturbed. Those
individuals are not deterred by the thought of a death penalty IN THE LEAST.
You seem utterly clueless of this fact, and it is a fact.
