I had a political science professor talk about working in a campaign with a politician who tried to make a compromise with people for or against the death penalty.
The compromise was that inmates given a life sentence would be offered a lethal pill that they could take at any time. I think he said the idea was that they would have it in their cell to use at any time.
That shit sounded fucking wild to me, but I was like 18 at the time and didn't know why I felt that way.
Looking back now, the psychological torture of being imprisoned for life with a pill like that would be immense and immoral as fuck.
Anyway, that's just one from me. What about the rest of you?
My high school English teacher had a framed photograph of George W. Bush in the classroom and constantly referred to him as the best president the United States ever had. And to top if off, I vaguely recall her talking about how she had a crush on him and considered him attractive. This was in 2015.
It's surreal to remember because at the time for whatever I reason I didn't think much of it. It wasn't until a year after I graduated that the recollection of it suddenly hit me like a ton of bricks in a case of fridge horror. How does a human being become so brain poisoned?
Oh no oh no oh no. That's all kinds of bad. At first I thought you were going to say some time during his presidency, maybe after that one day, I forget. But 2015? That's bananas.
Reminds me of that scene in Jesus Camp where the lady has all the kids bless a cardboard cutout of Bush
I get the bush being hot appeal tbh
sorry
let the team down
