I posted this on the Pro site just there; just out of curiousity. I'd like to ask you as well.
"On the Anti site, I get asked many hypothetical questions from Pros, and I do my best to answer them truthfully. I'd like to present you with a question of a similar nature. I visited my father yesterday, and asked his opinion on the death penalty. He said "I don't agree with the death penalty because I wouldn't be capable of pulling the switch or tightening the noose. I can't support other people doing what I wouldn't be able to do myself. I couldn't live with the knowledge that I had killed someone, no matter who they were." I agree with him. I couldn't kill anyone either. It would traumatise me for the rest of my life, and I think anyone who ends anyone's life, whether they be a murderer or an executioner needs help because there's something very wrong with that. Could you? Could you kill a terrified man/woman whose not harming you in front of their family and friends? Please be honest. Gillian x"
Of course, the Pros on the Pro site have always been primitive and indeed untruthful and insulting towards me. They're also highly predictable. So I expect that although many will tell me they would pull the switch truthfully, many will lie as I couldn't put them in that predicament myself. I urge you to be honest. Gill. x

I could... Those people on death row were convicted of crimes. Crimes that should never happen to anyone. And they have been sentenced todeath by a jury. They have had years of appeals, years of chances, years of life... The family of the person/s whose life that they ruined will never see that person again. So the person on death row is to be executed...They no longer deserve to live. I do not care if they had family, bad childhood, drugs and alcohol problems...That does not matter. They put themselves on death row. They are responsible for what they do to their own family as well... So yes, I could pull the switch, push the button, whatever...I have no problem taking out the trash in this case...

So you're capable and proud of your ability to kill someone, and would have "no problem" in intentionally ending someone's life. That's scary. That's incredibly scary. The idea of ending someones life would make me feel sick to the stomach. Theres obviously something wrong with your mentality. I hope and pray I do not meet you in a dark street late at night. Gives me the creeps. In the meantime, Joy's husband and many other inmates are not "trash". They're not proud of what they've done; I'm sure Joy's husband has developed a respect for human life that you clearly don't have. I'd sooner be in his company. Gill

You asked if I could execute someone, in the cold, hard light of day...in front of their family. I answered that I could and that it would, to me be just like taking out the trash...A job I do not like to do but will. I am not sorry if I offend people on this topic...Think of the horror that they inflicted on someone and their family. I look at the death penalty not as a deterrent, but as a punishment for their deeds...

I have seen old people die...I have seen babies born... To me, life is a miracle. And we have people in our society that treat life, which is such a precious thing so callously. I am not talking abut the power of the state but of the people that have killed and are on death row. They chose to do what they did...and have no one else to blame...

Heavy Metal didn't you, in another thread about who has wittnessed and execution say that you had big shoulders and would be willing to go with someone to help them through an execution? You can't have it both ways..........

Yes I did...And I can do both if asked... I do what I do because I can do both...I can support people and I could, in a different circomstance, execute them if asked... I doubt that either would ever happen, but I am willing to do them...

I could do it...in the cold, hard light of day...If I were asked... And I could easily kill someone if they tried to break into my apt. and tried to harm me or my wife... Other then those two circumstances, it is called murder... which is why we have death row...To punish murderers...
