Everyone is up in arms over this execution and I think the pictures are pretty gruesome myself. But how do you know this girl wasn't some sort of axe murder, or baby killer. I heard people on this web site supporting capital punishment all the time. I've even heard people on here suggest executing drug users.

I find it hard to criticize other countries for using capital punishment when we do. No one who has been commenting about this seems to consider maybe she's guilty. Believe me, I have no love affair with China

I'm sure pictures of electrocutions aren't pretty.

Settle down there commoner.

As a matter of fact, a few of us look at this from a technical point of view.

China has a lot of people. A lot of people means a lot of crime.

One can get the death penalty in China for just about anything. That may sound harsh, but try living along side about 1.5 billion other people. A few less people here or there is just a way of life.

She may well be guilty of whatever crime they said she did. She may not.

In the grand scheme of things, its just another day in China.
