This was tried in court. The response from the judge was “If the man is dead, then he cannot petition the court. If the man is not dead, then his life sentence has not been served.” An excellent exchange of sophistry!
Yall ever notice that professions that specialize in logic also tend to produce the dumbest motherfuckers on the planet?
Logic is only dumb when it goes against what we want lol.
the study finds that people who are otherwise very good at math may totally flunk a problem that they would otherwise probably be able to solve, simply because giving the right answer goes against their political beliefs.
…
it turns out that highly numerate liberals and conservatives were even more—not less—susceptible to letting politics skew their reasoning than were those with less mathematical ability.
Interesting. I wonder if it could be a kind of Dunning Kruger effect where you assume because you’re good at logic or some other smart thing your brain doesn’t have all the same zero day exploits as the rest of us.

He’s either dead or alive like, it’s not hard
Tell Schrödinger that
What’s in the box!?
We can only be sure if we have a look!
If you crashed your car and fixed it, you still crashed your car.
Death is nothing like that
Then the car is not dead now
Can’t his attourney petition on his behalf?
Literally New Game+
- Start fresh with no ongoing quests for income
- Getting quests is harder due to higher speech check requirements
- Certain quests will now be permanently locked-out
- Some NPCs are now default passive-hostile due to certain achievements you now have in your catalogue
- Start at a higher level but stats on paper are lower levelled so you will have to compete for lower level bounties
Wrong post?
Its in reference to him coming back to life and leaving prison with the new life situation he is in
I read this, don’t know if it’s true, that in the UK the sentence used to be “hang by the neck” but then they cut the rope before a guy died. He argued that the sentence was to hang by the neck, and the sentence was fulfilled. The judge agreed and from then on it was “hang by the neck till dead”. Might be totally made up but I want it to be true
Why is someone going septic from renal stones still in his cell and not in a hospital? He should sue for not receiving medical care.
Yes, but USA and medical care is almost an oximoron
Sounds like a prison hospital is all you get if you murder people. Seems fair to me tbh, not a big fan of murderers.
Withholding medical care or administrating poor or neglectful medical care certainly sounds cruel and unusual to me.
Don’t engage with them, look at the username. I wish more trolls were this upfront about it.
I mean, at least they’re honest lol
And what does murder sound like to you
Can you confirm beyond a shadow of a doubt that absolutely everyone in that prison is actually a murderer?
No, but that’s how Japan does it and look at the crime rate over there.
So the question is, if you die and are resuscitated, are you living the same life or a new one?
Depends if you have memory continuity I suppose.
That’s up to you I suppose
Did your brain die? Did you get reincarnated? If not, you’re the same you.
And there was that one guy who claimed that scientifically every cell in our body regenerates every 7 years, so after 7 years you are no longer the same person who committed the crime. So prisoners should not have to stay in prison more than 7 years.
If it’s good enough for Star Trek it’s good enough for me.

Not sure if it is the same article but a search gave multiple hits with articles using the same picture, so I guess at least those are the same? Man is still I prison.
He’s still living in the same body, so no dice.
Except if he had several life sentences
“If I paid for death, I’m gonna use all of it”
