Death Online

Sep 14, 2000 4:13pm CST tags: Wack News
We were going to save this one for Evening Reading but I thought this was something that would probably overshadow the rest of the stuff. Doug Wolcott pointed out this website which is working towards covering executions of prisoners online. Pretty morbid stuff. Here's the quick tagline:

Welcome to death.com. Coming soon - online coverage of executions.

This is the kind of thing  that really pushes the envelope on those 'rights' we have in America. Disgusting. I heard about this a couple of weeks ago and its more oriented towards the whole spectacle of death thing than just informing people.
