Would you support harvesting and donating organs from people who are on death row after they're executed?

I've heard people say that it'd be a good idea, take people who have done horrible things and taken lives and use their organs to save lives.
I've also heard people say they're against it because they wouldn't want an organ from someone who did something that was horrible and deserving of the death penalty

Absolutely. If they are on death row, they have committed heinous crimes against humanity.

I also believe that they should have to participate in drug trials instead of forcing animals to endure the side effects.

@LordShadowfire I said that it
“ sounds “ like you were advocating it didn’t say that it was a fact. Yes, you do have to send me screenshots when you accuse me of something.. are you really this insecure?

FYI, you did say that it would be cruel to sentence the guilty, man who committed rape but have no problem advocating for the innocent one to receive the death penalty by being ripped apart alive

@missyann Oh, my mistake. You said it sounded like I was saying that. You weren't saying I was saying that. All the difference in the world right there, isn't it? How very convenient.

And no. I never said that. Provide a screenshot of where I did.

@missyann LordShadow has blocked me. This happens when they know that they have no more excuses

I never block anyone just because I strongly disagree with their stance. I have sometimes agreed with something they have said, and I let them know. I just quit responding, but I do read their post.
China does it all the time

Why not trade organs? In this state the rich and celebrities get first dibs on donated organs.

Oligarths want everyone else dead. Why not pay for organs?

@Crazywaterspring Well put.

No.

Executions typically ruin organs.

@SomeMichGuy good point, and if they came up with a way to do it without ruining them it'd probably be something that would be considered "cruel and unusual" and therefore unconstitutional
@Blazer420 Well, maybe they could opt to donate their organs in an operation where they would be put to sleep after the extraction(s)...

vs.

traditional execution.

I've given it lots of thought and yes. Although I oppose the death penalty in general.

Wasn't there an X files episode about this?
FreestyleArt · 31-35, M
Nope. Sounds like China's Gold mining
I've heard that, too. By the Chinese government. Awfully pragmatic, those Chinese

Why not? The organs didn't do anything illegal, except for the brain.
Which could in turn cause more innocent people to be unjustly sentenced to death just to get their organs, turning prisons into black marketeers.
