Gaschamber Executions in the US - Gas Executions of Kurds in Iraq

[ThomWV]

Someone tell me what the difference is if we gas people one at a time right up until this day and Sadam gased people a village at a time back in the 1980's. Dead is dead. The only thing I can see that is different is that the ones that we gassed didn't have any ability to run away.

I'm just taking a guess here but I'd have to say we have executed a lot more people in this country using gas than Sadam ever did.

1. First you have to authenticate that Saddam gassed the kurds

Best I remember it was the wrong gas that Saddam had, Iran had the type of gas used.

2. First, I'm highly opposed to the death penalty in any form, BUT . . .

the major difference you skip in your argument is that the people Saddam allegedly gassed never had a trial, access to counsel, etc.

3. The ones we

executed were murderers??
