Strange Famous

so, if thye dont deserve to live, and I am not agreeing or disagreeing with that... what is the purpose of tortuing them? If you want to kill someone because you judge they are not fit to exist, why slowly beat them to death and port acid in the wounds and all the gruesome things you talk of? If they are judged unfit to live surely you kill them, erase them, as quickly and easily as possible.

What is the value, the benefit, the purpose, of making someone who has caused great pain to others suffer great pain?


A few answers I can deal with

Will it bring back those who died? No.

Will it give their loss any meaning? No.

Will it give their loss any greater dignity? how can it.

Does it make the relatives of the lost feel better? I hope not

Does it deter others? Definitely not.

SO again, I ask, and really want to know, what is the value of giving horrible tortures to the worst criminals?
