Bring back cruel and unusual punishment.

It's not cruel if it's quick and it's not unusual if we do it often.

Redefine "Cruel and unusual punishment".

It used to mean stuff like being flayed alive, crucified, brazen bull, blood angel, scaphism, rat torture, keelhauling, impaling, or being boiled.

Electric chair, firing squad, hanging, injection are all RIDICULOUSLY humane comparatively.
