That sounds like a police problem. Which is tied to the government, since I assume they fund the police? Why would you actually give your government the power to legally kill someone then?
If anything it sounds like y’all should limit their powers

All it takes is one escape and another killing spree.

That actually happened too.
Snippet...
In December 1977, Bundy escaped again from a hole he had chiseled into the ceiling of his cell. He wasn’t discovered missing until 15 hours after he escaped. During this second escape, Bundy attacked four sorority girls at Florida State University, killing two of them. Then in February, he kidnapped and killed 12-year-old Kimberly Leach. He was finally caught later that month.

10 serial killers who have escaped prison and were fugitives
Executing Bundy was the right decision.
That’s not an argument for or against the death penalty. Maybe fix your security?
Also robbers might escape and go on a robbing spree. You going to kill them too?
People who killed by drunk driving?
I mean they could get out and kill someone else with their recklessness.
I mean all it takes is them escaping, right?
As much as I would like a serial killer to die, that’s not a good enough reason to sink to their level
Granted if someone happens to kill a serial killer in say self defence then I’d be inclined to give them a pat on the back and “job well done” lol

Imagine explaining that if Bundy was spared and then escaped again.
No. It has to be done sometimes. This was a proper call.
Imagine if you killed an innocent man and had to explain to the family your mistake.
Like I have no qualms about Ted Bundy being dead. Good. But I’m still against the death penalty

That's why we fix the jails and prisons. They very desperately need that anyways.

What in the world is wrong with the guillotine? The electric chair and the lethal injection seem like they must be worse. The guillotine seems pretty humane, with minimized pain. Though aesthetically it obviously doesn't score well
Well it is rather messy
(Sorry I couldn’t resist.)
I’d imagine if it wasn’t umm “well kept” it might pose a problem in execution (heh)
Then again it is associated with the French Revolution so I mean the PR possibilities alone
(I’m not being entirely serious. Just in case that’s not clear.)

There's no such thing as escape proof.

The person lives through it for a few seconds.
What is it with people who insist there must be further death?

There is a ton of room for improvement in the American systems. You have to think, places that have abolished the death penalty aren't worried about this. They aren't scared of your scenario.
Do you want to start emulating Russia?

Ted Bundy was abandoned by his mother at the lunds home as a baby. He was unwanted. Those first few months of his life where it's important for a baby to have a mother holding and breastfeeding the child, he didn't get that.
His mother reluctantly picked him up later, because his grandfather told her to. She raised him with the lie that she was his sister, and that his grandfather was his father .
When he found out he was illegitimate, he was crushed. When people told him it's okay that he's illegitimate, he responded "you're not the one who's illegitimate".
He got exposed to the pornography that his grandfather kept in the greenhouse, adult magazines, at age 8 years old. It became an addiction and an obsession to kill his pain and misery.
His grandfather had outburst of rage, was a bigot, was very hateful. He had no father to show him how to be a responsible man and lead a good example, and his mother wasn't well either, cuz she had him living a total lie, and tried to hide that she was even his mother.
The very young pornography addiction of Ted, caused him to objectify women, and have many warped , creepy , sexual obsessions.
Originally, he was not charming and charismatic, and girls didn't like him. He also was very shy, timid, felt like there was something wrong with him, he was bullied, and he was the butt of pranks!
Later on in life, he learned how to wear a mask, learned how to pretend he's someone he's not, learned how to be a sociopath, learned how to be a burglar, learned how to behave like he was above the law, learned how to be charming, learned how to be charismatic, became active in politics, and began to look like he had a bright future.
But behind his mask and his smile, he was a very tortured individual. The only real relief and joy he found was doing extremely depraved , sadistic , morbid crimes against innocent young women.
Obviously an 8-year-old addicted to pornography plays a role, but not having your mother hold you and cherish you during those first few months of your life, and being raised in that environment, is going to seriously damage a person! Obviously that contributed big time to what he became!
I feel sorry for him, I think he should have been aborted, and obviously never born in the first place! I think keeping him locked up in solitary confinement for a full lifespan is more inhumane than the electric chair however!
