Today, the Supreme Court has announced that ViZion will continue to uphold executions of criminals who commit horrid crimes, such as murder or rape. The decision comes after public outcry over the findings that an innocent 19 year old women was executed at the chair on three charges of murder, and two charges of child molestation.

"We will continue to uphold our long tradition of executing those who commit crimes that are to cruel for words. This is among the things that have kept ViZion among the safest places in the world to live and visit as crime is totally unknown." said Joan Timmer, a Supreme Court Justice.

Four men and three women currently await execution. The first is scheduled for two days from now, with the last scheduled for 24 days from now. Those put on Death Row rarely have over a month to live, and in many cases only one to two weeks.

The ways in which execution is permitted in ViZion is by hanging, electric chair, gas chamber, or the needle. On rare occations, the firing squad is used, with flogging to death and stoning to death being alternatives to that.

The message was broadcast on television sets all across Stoklomolvi.

"Executions, they say? They reinstated executions?! Ridiculous! They need to shoot wrongdoers on the spot, just like we do."

"What if it was a false cri-"

"SHUT UP!"

The SMPF then stormed the building and shot everyone inside.

To: imported_ViZion
Subject: Applause for imported_ViZion's enlightened policies

First of all, Channel 6 feels in speaks on behalf of all Dyelli Beybi when saying we congratulate imported_ViZion on it's fair and just manner of dealing with the most violent of criminals. In speaking of which we cannot help but remember our erstwhile Eastern neighbours in Christofi, who pursued a similar enlightened policy towards the worst criminals in their own fair state.

Happily do we at Channel 6, remember the great boost to ratings enjoyed when Christofi decided to broadcast their executions in the fantastic television series "Slaughter of Sin". Channel 6 wishes to enquire if the Government of imported_ViZion is planning to take up the batton of public entertainment as well as that of justice and televise these executions; particularly the interesting ones such as the stonings and floggings. Channel 6 would gladly purchase the rights to broadcast any such television series in Dyelli Beybi.

Alfegos does not mind which methods are used to bring final justice to criminals: In Alfegos, cases of Murder, rape and terrorism are usually punished by death.

However, we don't go for a public entertainment factor or pain factor with the executions, in which the subject is killed with pure Nitrogen gas: the subject only has the sensation of falling asleep within their cell.

Honvorg Korporate Inquiry

Hello,

My name is Gordok Honvorg, the owner of the largest Korporation in Kroando, and I have heard of the recent upholding of executions in ViZion while reading through an international news report. I would first like to support the soviergn right of your nation to do so. However I feel that I must explain to you my offer before contuing with my daily routine.

Capital Punishment has been outlawed in Kroando mainly due to my own action. It is not that I feel some great compassion for these criminals, these monsters of society... it is simply that I see a use for them. Forced labor to the end of their days is the method which Kroando opperates, and is highly responsible not only for the booming state of our economy, but the survival of our civilization as a whole. We require such labor in vast amounts, and I must propose to you this offer. Instead of death, allow the Honvorg Korporation to extract these undesirables from your nation, transport them to penal colonies where they will work till the end of their days, and never again bother your people. Not only will you save the cost of executions, but the deterrent factor of execution will not be lost... as suffering through life in a Korporate Penal Colony is far worse than a simple death by needle.

Please consider my offer,

Gordok Honvorg

Gordok Honvorg,

I thank you for your offer, and while intriguing, we will turn it down. We will deal with our criminals ourselves.

Thank you,

Two Bums on the street, the City of the Blessed

Bum 1: So imported_ViZion is continuing to uphold its executions.

Bum 2: Why should I care?

Bum 1: Well mark that off as one of the places you don't want to get arrested, instead of getting a warm meal, and a place to stay, it looks like you'll get the barrel of a gun.

Bum 2: What's the world coming to, when a guy can't just go to jail, and a get some warm food, and a place to sleep. Up till now I though there was some decency in the world.

Bum 1: Don't be so depressed, they're always, um... uh... wait, no... wow your right, it is getting to the point where there is no reasons left for a bum to live.

Bum 2: Now thats just crazy talk, what about tomato soup Mondays down at Helga's soup kitchen.

Bum 1: Helga's! Who in they're right mind would eat that slop, you need to come down to Berny's Outreach Center for Chicken Soup Sunday's, they use real Campbell's Chicken Noodle, not that generic stuff.

Bum 2: Wow! Really, I got to get myself down there to try that stuff.

To our allies and comrades in Vizion;

It is good to see that our comrades in Vizion have reinstated the death penalty. These monsters, these freaks of nature, should be - and are, in our nations and yours - killed. They cannot be allowed to do what they did again, and comrade, that to us is the greatest justice.

Congratulations, comrade. You made the right choice.

Official Government Message

We have, since the creation of our nation, utilized executions as a punishment for murder, rape and treason, so long as the proof is there. Murders and rapist are commonly subjected to the electric chair, gallows, needle or chopping block. Treason is most commonly punished by death by firing squad.
