The offender is to be punished in the offending members. And the slow and cruel death is precisely what some offenders deserve - not even for their own sake [they are wasted material anyway], but for the sake of the educational effect on the others which is to be maximized. Liberal coddling of the criminals gave us the present deplorable results.

Since you claim to have naturalized and become an American citizen, I'll direct you to the founding fathers of this great nation. Please, please, avail yourself to the writings of these great men. In particular read the 8th Amendment and the wealth of information they left behind on why cruelty is CONSTITUTIONALLY PROSCRIBED in this nation. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and assume that you just don't know any better, and don't understand the American position on barbarism such as you're describing.
