Death Penalty as spare parts source.

[Cappuccina]

What in the fucking fuck?

If soap is just fat, it isn't so objectionable. Now I don't know first hand, if its good for cleaning purposes or not. If it has a good or bad scent as opposed to the ways soap is usually made. But I do believe that dead bodies can be recycled much more efficiently if the sentimentality is removed. We should see the dead, as a resource or business opportunity. It is wasteful to keep using coffins and its generally a waste of time and resources to hold funerals. The dead are gone, so they definitely aren't going to hear or care about what well wishers do, but many products can be made that people will arguably benefit more from.

No respect for the dead I see. For a "Nazi", you sure have a very capitalist view of humanity.

You need a therapist.

[Thermodolia]

This reminds me of what the government of China does, and that is enough for me to oppose it.

This. If this idea goes into effect I’ll go from moderate on the death penalty to strongly against

[An Alan Smithee Nation]

I saw a documentary on this, The Hands of Orlac.

[Duhon]

You'll just see an uptick in convictions leading to the death penalty. You'll probably also see the US and other countries resort to the guillotine in order to make maximum use of the organs of the executed. Organ harvesting becomes a veritable industry under this.

Why is this roundabout cannibalism a good idea, again?

[Duhon]

I must admit that I want to try a bar of soap derived from human fat, for science.

What in the fucking fuck?

[The Blaatschapen]

I'm going to skip over the ethical dilemma first and look at how this would actually work. Only 25 inmates were executed in the US in 2018, two of them were electrocuted so there organs are useless. For the other 23 the most useful and needed organs for donation the heart, liver, and kidneys are destroyed by the process of lethal injection, then only about half of them would be suitable for organ donation cutting down the population of executed inmates able to donate organs to about 12, being hopeful.

That and hospitals probably won't take the organs seeing that it's a massive violation of the Hippocratic Oath.

Twelve organ donors. On a country of 327 million people.

An NS news article would probably get more people signed up for organ donorhood than this suggestion.

So in terms of effectiveness, 0. In terms of gruesomeness 100.

Indeed, don't do this.

[Kuominwave]

Dead felons don’t need organs.

[Senkaku]

I don't have a problem with harvesting organs from actual murderers and such-- the issue with China is that they do it with political prisoners (aka innocent people)

[First American Empire]

I strongly oppose the death penalty, but if we are executing people anyway we should at least use the organs to save lives. Executing people is a terrible violation of human rights. Executing people and basically throwing their useful organs in the garbage is worse. If I ever get executed somehow, I would want my organs to be donated.

[LiberNovusAmericae]

It really should be considered.

I must admit that I want to try a bar of soap derived from human fat, for science. If there is no risk for prions, certain bones from people can perhaps be used for gelatin. Dead bodies may well be more lucrative for products than we think, if we can get past wanting to bury them. I can understand the need for burning a corpse after a certain point, but not wasting perfectly good land with coffins and graves.

This is suspiciously reminiscent of Nazi death camps.

The funerals and cemeteries are not for the dead.

You give dehumanization a new meaning.

I personally don't support capital punishment and harvesting organs without consent. The latter, well, just feels off.

[USS Monitor]

I'm usually pretty pragmatic about these things, but I don't like the idea of a system that creates an incentive to execute more people. I'm wary of trusting the authorities with this sort of thing, and would rather just not have the death penalty.

Funerals are for the living, to remember the dead and to say a final goodbye.

[Nova Cyberia]

Why don't the govt instead mandate everyone to donate their organs after they die, if we're going with that approach?

Because the dead have bodily sovereignty, apparently.

I understand the anti-death penalty viewpoint, while not sharing it, but if we are going to have one shouldn't it do some positive good to society, rather than just the negative of removing a killer from the population?

[Nazi Basurian Empire]

Yes it is utterly immoral and even cannibalistic in essence

[-Ocelot-]

A fair idea in theory but where is money involved, there is also abuse.

Look at the US government, their drug agencies and private prisons. They are basically pushing people towards incarceration to be used as slave labor, while private prisons reap the profits. I don't want to imagine what they'd do to maximize the amount of organs harvested from death inmates.

[Jack Thomas Lang]

The death penalty alone is barbaric and immoral. Assuming this would be done without permission, it only makes it worse.

[Aclion]

I think it's weird that people are more supportive of taking someone's organs by for then they are of allowing people to sell them.

Speaking only for myself, I have no objection to people being allowed to sell their organs. How would it be different than people selling, rather than donating, blood?
