Oh, how we value human life...

...You may think this is a picture of a burning car. If you think that, you are wrong. And if you are a carjacker in Johanassburg, South Africa, you are dead wrong. For those of us who had no idea, apparently carjacking is a huge problem over there (like, 4,000 in 6 months!). People are getting shot, raped, killed, just for their stupid automobile (and I'm not talking Mercedes here, I'm talking Jetta's. Hell, probably even Yugo's!!!). So, they've come up with this wonderful deterrent for car jacking (here is the video link if you don't believe me). A new pedal on the floor of the car, when pressed, fires two crazy insane flamethrowers from below the driver and passenger doors, thus burning the fuck out of the carjacker on the drivers side, and probably some poor woman and her puppy just walking by on the sidewalk. And of course, there is never the chance that you may accidentally hit that instead of the gas or break, right? No, that'd never happen. Can't wait till your kids start playing in the car one day......

....In other love of life stories, the old guy in California was executed - that had to dose him twice. Crazy Indians! But there was one interesting comment I found. This guy had a heart attack, and lived, but since he was so old, he hoped that maybe he'd die of natural causes instead of the death penalty. And the quote of the day is: "At no point are we not going to value the sanctity of life," said prison spokesman Vernell Crittendon. "We would resuscitate him," then execute him. Hmmm, we could save resources by not trying to save him, and by not having to execute him. But, Noooo. We'll bring him back to life, just for the thrill of killing him!
