Deathmobile
I can't figure out which is more disturbing: the fleet of mobile execution vans deployed by the Chinese government, or the fact that 48% of AOL readers think this is humane.
And, anyway, why do they have to be mobile? This isn't like spaying your cat or getting screened for STDs.

Yeah, internet polls are terrible. Convenience samples in the very worst way. Still, I think they are a rough approximation of the "intensity" of opinion, in the sense that the results reflect both the penetration force of a story and the intensity of opinions around it.
But this is the kind of story that one would think would arouse a kind of patriotic "we're better than the godless Commies" smugness about our human rights record. Apparently not so.
It is the ultimate horror of a government that has embraced dialectical materialism run mad: atheism as the mandatory "religion," utilitarianism devoid of humanistic consideration, efficiency of market adaption and control mechanisms, science minus ethics, and machine logic without soul.
Brilliant observation!
