What scares me is getting in a traffic dispute with a guy holding a loaded .357 on the way to his chosen location of suicide.

Screw the rest, You give the state the power to allow inmates the “right” to suicide, you give the state the right to “suicide” anyone in their custody.

Hitler started with the imbecile. Then the criminals...

Then anyone who messed with him.

This is a joke, right...?

You make a good point about preventing inmate suicide. I never realized the danger of letting it become common, so that murders by other inmates or employees could be covered up. I always appreciate getting insights like that on an issue.

Similarly, I never had a good opinion of defense lawyers until I realized that without them, we’d have a police state. I have a lot of respect for police but we can’t let them have too much power, or there would be a lot of corruption.

“Inconvenient” prisoners already die in custody on a semi-regular basis. Jim McDougal, Kenneth Trentadue, etc. I bet you could find a dozen more on the Clinton body count lists.

How much prodding from a corrupt deputy do the animals in jail need before they kill another inmate? As it turns out, not much at all:

This undoubtedly happens all the time to street criminals in the joint. The attacks can easily be blamed on gang disputes.

I say let’s issue extra long bed sheets to this POS and let him end the saga for good.
