"Unsubstantiated" lol
People's Republic of China
After the 1997 decision to legalize lethal injection as a form of execution, PRC officials began using execution vans across China. Becoming popular in 2006, these officials state that the vans are cost-effective by allowing communities without the money to build dedicated death rows to kill prisoners (read: political dissidents) without the costs associated with sending prisoners away for death. Former Chinese judge and current lawyer Qiu Xingsheng argues that "some places can't afford the cost of sending a person to Beijingāperhaps $250āplus $125 more for the drug."[9] Because Beijing is the only place where the drug is manufactured, the vans have allowed localities to administer the death sentence where the crime took place. Estimates place the number of execution vans in operation at around 40; the PRC has not confirmed this number. A converted 24-seat bus, the execution van keeps the appearance of a normal police van on the outside with no markings indicating its purpose. The rear of the vehicle houses a windowless chamber where the execution takes place. Several cameras are present and feed closed-circuit televisions in the front of the van; a recording can be made if desired. The bed itself slides out of the wall under its own power, on which the convicted person is strapped down. A syringe is put into the arm by a technician and a police official administers the injection by pressing a button.
The PRC government claims that this is a more humane form of killing people, being far less painful than firing squad executions. Zhao Shijie, president of the Yunnan Provincial High Court, was quoted as praising the new system: "The use of lethal injection shows that China's death penalty system is becoming more civilized and humane."[8] While the vans have moved China away from previous days of large public executions, human rights activists counter that they are "like government-sanctioned death squads", and allow for an increased number and a higher efficiency of executions. There is concern that mobile execution units have made organ harvesting much easier and more profitable, as lethal injection does not damage the body.[clarification needed] In March 2006 the Ministry of Health banned the sale of organs.[9] It is believed[by whom?] that this has had no effect. Activists claim that the bodies are quickly cremated, which makes it impossible for family members to determine if organs have in fact been removed.[7]

The thing about socialism is you can vote your way in, but you have to shoot your way out, but most people are far too stupid, uneducated and ignorant of history to realize this fact.

Well, it's against the law to give homeless people food here. You can be ticketed thousands of dollars or arrested.

I don't think a woman could do that, unless she was in her '80's or frigid or something. Females are sexual creatures by nature.
