As you all know, the death penalty is a highly effective way to deter crime. However, recently, reports have been flooding in of people becoming immune or simply knowing when they get the injection and running. Also, doctors can contract it if the patient coughs or sneezes and the germs get through the fibers in the HazMat suit.

The scientists in Seperatists for Trade have recently discovered a virus which kills within minutes of contact with the skin. By venting the microscopic virus in through microscopic vents, criminals will not be able to escape it.

The cost of the virus (being titled MMFV for Minute Microscopic Fatal Virus) is:

$1,500 per vial. One vial kills an average man within 2 minutes.
or
$50,000,000 for a producer of the virus which has an avg. lifespan of 250 years.

Telegram Seperatists For Trade for further information.

(P.S. Tell us if you are satisfied, though I am sure you will be.)

Why bother with any of that, a gas chamber or firing squad will work just as effectively without all the hoo-hah of injections and the like.

The most effective, and painless method of capital punishment remains the guillotine.

IC: The death penalty currently in use is much to horrific for our country, the electric chair has been abolished, but the lethal injection is of much more humane use. The guards who have to do this are ususally very guilt-stricken and the few times in which it has been carried out caused severe trama for several of the guards knowing that they killed a man. This is not how our deeply religious nation believes it should be done. However the Empire is intrested in this product and we wish to recieve detailed information on how it works before purchasing.

-What kind of form is the virus in, a light hard to detect gas or something along the lines of a powder or liquid?

-Is it spreadable to others or possible to be avoided with clothing on?

-Does this cause any pain or trama for the subject?

-Just how long is this virus lasting and what kind of physical effects does it have on the body?

-How many vials will the producer be able to make in an NS year and if it is possible to produce offspring?

Wolfchester uses convicts for weapon testing..very effective..and helpful for our country.

-What kind of form is the virus in, a light hard to detect gas or something along the lines of a powder or liquid?
RE: It is a germ in the air that you do not respond to until within 25 seconds (on avg.) of death.
-Is it spreadable to others or possible to be avoided with clothing on?
RE: It is 98% non-communicable. Wearing a very light HazMat suit will prevent the 2% possiblility of spreading.
-Does this cause any pain or trama for the subject?
RE: Part of the reason we decided to market it is because it is totally painless.
-Just how long is this virus lasting and what kind of physical effects does it have on the body?
RE: The virus itself lasts only about two minutes and subjects experienced what is described by scientists as "Coldness, that like the first few hours of a common cold packed into 2 minutes."
-How many vials will the producer be able to make in an NS year and if it is possible to produce offspring?
RE: The producer can, at maximum, make 7 vials per week. WARNING: Creating 7 per week can decrease life expectancy by 20 years or less.
No, it is not. If you need more, contact us.

The guillotine may be the quickest and most humaine for sure but its frigging messy.

Lethal Injection is probably the best even though the prisoner has to endure that little injection pain.

Here's a neat question that is being discussed in the Upitatanium legislature this moment: Is it cruel and unusual punishment to give a prisoner, who is afraid of needles, lethal injection? It concerns the extradition of a prisoner to a neighbor with capital punishment and not Upitatanium since we have recently abolished prisons.

Actually..Lethal Injection isn't painless, its horrible..

You got 6 things running into you..4 Saline solutions..and two other compounds...

One Compound collapses your lungs..another stops the heart...and there is a burning in your veins...

Granted with in the first 30 seconds you pass out..but those who don't die..horribly.

We wish to gladly purchase 20 of the MMFV for Minute Microscopic Fatal Virus producers for a total of $1,000,000,000. We will gladly take into consideration the limit of the producer so that it doesn't die prematurely from over harvesting of its virus.

Our Law and Order funding will greatfully accept this in cooperation of our Education system to teach about your MMFV producers. Money will be wired upon confirmation.

What's so wrong about the firing squad?

I understand your order and thank you. Please inform us of how it goes.

That is horrible which I said, but having someone in the chair is far more painful and inhumane. If you know about the Rosenberg case (1950's, Suspected Communist Spies, convicted and killed) that it took 3 times to actually kill Ethal Rosenburg, which is 90 seconds each time of being shocked. Also the frying of the body and blood are disgusting, the scene is not exactly the most beautiful thing in the world either.

With my virus, there is none of the blood or gore or pain. It is a very peaceful death.
