    Well .. lets see. I was raised on a farm. So I have done a fair share of killing for food. My ancestry is Native American, so I have a deep respect for life (regardless if this is true or not for most Native Americans, it was how I was raised..to believe that Native Americans have a deep respect for life..so that is how I acted).

    However, I feel sorrow even if I kill an insect. I do not wish to harm anything. This does not cause me to go vegan or anything, but it does mean I do not wish to kill my own food. Can I? Absolutely. Will I? Only if absolutely needed.

      I don't have a problem with you dislike of KFC I don't see you as a hippocrit.
      Ah, but decapitation isn't necessarily a quick death; it has been theorised that a person can live several minutes after decapitation. As for drowning, it only took a few seconds. I've also drowned a budgie; this was back when I worked in the pet centre. Said budgie had scaly face; my manager's bright idea was to let the bird die slowly. My collegue and I, however, didn't want it to suffer so we took it out back and drowned it.

      Some people think that's cruel and I'm without heart; however, if I were a budgie suffering from scaly face and knew I was doomed to suffer til my beak fell off and I died, I would choose to be drowned rather than go thru that.

        Theorised, sure, but the best reckoning I've seen is about twenty seconds at most before unconsciousness is complete, often sooner due to shock. The sudden drop in blood pressure is pretty hard on the system and brain death may be a while later, but unconsciousness is pretty fast.

          Unrelated, I'm sure, but I once read about this tribe which executed people by tying their head to a tree, pulling it down and letting the tree decapitate them. Spending your last few seconds of consciousness flying thru the air can't be a bad way to go... XD

            Are you serious? That would be HORRIBLE.

            As for KFC I got food poisoning there once myself. I didn't care for them in the first place and that clinched it. I think they are a source of food poisoning and them paying out is a good call.

              Unless you test your food, you can't say for sure that you got food poisoning from someplace specific, and unless you get tested yourself, you can't even say you got food poisoning for certain. A lot of cases of suspected food poisoning turn out to be things like people passing colds to other diners.

              Now, that doesn't mean you should patronize KFC. If you don't like them, you don't like then, and you shouldn't feel the need to justify that fact.

                One of the stranger methods of execution by hanging was kinda the reverse of what we see on TV. The executee would stand on a platform or ground with the noose around their neck. The rope was run up thru a pulley then over to another pulley with the other end of the rope attached to a very heavy suspended weight. The weight was released and the sudden yanking was supposed to have the same effect as dropping. Personally I don't think either method would be one that I would select.

                  Bullet to the head would be my choice. If I were to be executed, that is.

                    I could also cite the Halifax Gibbet, which was the first version of the guillotine and had a curved blade. The rope was cut and the blade fell. An amusing side effect of the blade shape was sometimes to send the head flying into the air, occasionally landing in someone's lap. XD

                      There must be something seriously wrong with me. I chuckled at both of these.

                      Although, if I did have to be beheaded, of all the methods, I would choose the guillotine. Guy with an axe could have bad aim and then you wind up with the two whacks and subsequent sawing of gristle that it took to assassinate Mary, Queen of Scots.

                        Worse if you were the Countess of Salisbury; the executioner chased her all around the room slashing at her. O_o

                              I tested the remaining burger parts at work(I ate half, and got full), hence the knowledge it was the mayo , I was merely curious, and I had the means to do so.
