Make a convict-gladiator league like Running Man!

This would be an awesome idea. Make these guys fight with weapons (swords, axes, mauls, etc.) and broadcast it on TV with the proceeds going to the victims of the crime. Why waste money keeping these guys alive when their lives are forfeit without chance of rehabilitation?

Another good idea would be a reality show where the convicts are all on an island together; murderers and rapists all. We could watch them interact with each other on TV. Better than watching and activist negro girl, a gay latino, a lesbian, a normal guy, a slutty valley girl, and a macho asshole bicker in a fucking apartment!

I always thought it would be a good idea to let cops use people, who were convicted of capital crimes, for target practice on the range....How realistic is just shooting a paper target? It would save the Government alot of money carrying out death the death penalty while giving those who enforce the laws better training (Shooting at a moving person).

Hey....If the Government is going to kill them anyway....Why not get some benefit out of it???

actually what you should do is make the convicts fight with whatever weapon they used to comit murders. Could you imagine somone who used poison to commit murder lol.

Nah...if they used the same weapon that they used to commit a murder, everybody would start killing people with flame throwers or something!!!

What if they are really good? Should they earn their freedom like gladiators? .. Should the ones that have winning streaks get to be on Pepsi commericals? What if kids start looking up to them as role models?

What then?
.. What then?
