Would it be illegal to, instead of the death penalty, put criminals to good use disarming bombs or testing for radioactivity after nukes etc..??? [/QUOTE]That probably falls under "cruel and unusual", unfortunately. However, I don't see why it shouldn't be made an *option*, right? "Well, we're going to execute you. You can either sit here on death row for a year without appeal, just twiddling your thumbs, or you can go check for mines and die instantly and painlessly." It's a start.
