Death (a quick one) would just be to good for him though. You gotta make him sit. Attrophy. higher brain functions have to leave him. Not quickly like they did for Terri. But slowly. He has to be BROKEN by bending oh so slowly.
I'd be all for housing "lifers" if they'd just get slapped around some by the people we pay. Just letting them rot is a waste of my money!
Somehow I doubt it would be "quick".
You'll have to pardon the clannish symmetry of my idea....it's the hillbilly shining through....;)
