Capital Punishment for very evil people

How about adding Other which could include:

1.To be hanged, drawn and quartered was from 1351 a statutory penalty in England for men convicted of high treason, although the ritual was first recorded during the reign of King Henry III (1216–1272). Convicts were fastened to a hurdle, or wooden panel, and drawn by horse to the place of execution, where they were hanged (almost to the point of death), emasculated, disembowelled, beheaded, and quartered (chopped into four pieces). Their remains were often displayed in prominent places across the country, such as London Bridge. For reasons of public decency, women convicted of high treason were instead burned at the stake.

2. hand them over (restrained) to their victims or victims relatives.

3. Crucifixion

If I was a king I'd punish the most abhorred crimes with the most abhorred execution method: death by frying.
The convicted criminal is put into a large metal vessel that is filled with oil ankle-deep. The metal vessel gets slowly heated by a fire until the convict starts to get fried alive from the feet up. Apparently it took the criminal several minutes to die and it was so horrible that spectators fainted by the dozens.

And should I run out of oil,  death by sawing. 

Ok..

The death sentence is *suppposed* (I think) to exist as a deterrent to discourage further criminal activity.

That said, (ethics aside) if the the sentence is strange or brutal, you could even say "cruel and unusual," it may incite further criminal activity.

So I say Lethal Injection, Gas Inhalation, or (if no such thing is available) firing squad. Some of the other methods are just bizzare violence fetish nonsense.

No danger. 

What a utter waste of food and lodging.

As a victim of criminal violence in the past,  I can testify that I have been in the presence of people who are truly evil, who have no empathy for anyone, it's chilling, it's tangible you can feel it emanating from them, there's very little that's human about these individuals.   I would have absolutely no hesitation or cumpunction in carrying out/ordering any punishment listed here.  It still effects me psychologically.

I used to be a nice person who believed in "humane treatment", but after I was alone with these creatures, everything changed.   Victims are told to move on and forgive these scumbags, that's fine for some, but guess what I'm not religious so that doesn't cut it with me.  I imagine there's a significant proportion of victims like myself who feel the need for something more substantial, who require retribution/payback and the permanent removal of these filth to feel any kind of justice or safety.   If that now makes me a bad person, that's too bad, the callous bastard's we're talking about here always escalate and are beyond redemption, fuck them, let them die.

This belongs in the politics thread.

I'm not just saying that because of the thread title.
Honest.

Isolate them. Put them into a cell that's just big enough for them to fit in. Bound them and shove a feeding tube down their throat that sticks from the ceiling and ends somewhere outside their cage. Close and lock the door. Feed and water them at least once a day. Their confined cell should be full of human waste after a while, and eventually stop feeding them. Also, cover the door with concrete.

That's interesting, but I once read of an interesting punishment. What you do is you amputate both arms and legs of a person, you leave them in a fluid of some kind, I forget exactly what, but I think it helps negate the piss and poop, I guess it gets cleaned every so often, or drained and refilled. The head is kept above water at all time tho. But they're fed and maintained so they live, for the rest of their lives. unable to move, touch, feel, just sorta be there, til the madness sets in and even then til they die. 

Sadly in a modern world that would cost quite the pretty penny, so an american friend of mine gave me an alternative. Just shoot them in the head, it's all they deserve and then left to rot and be forgotten. 

It use to be a practice to turn criminals into slaves. Pragmatic approach. 

Make them play Mass Effect Andromeda. They’d be throwing themselves out of the window after 5 minutes talking to Peebee so you wouldn’t even have to do anything.
