It's a while ago, since we've had the "little democracy poll"

So let's have another one :-)

No means, that the state does not kill any people; instead convicteds usually spend their lifes (or at least 15 years) in prison, as seen in europe.

Yes means, that "real crimers", such as murders may receive the death penalty, as seen in the US.

Yes (2) means, that not only crimers, even political dissidents that critizes of offend the government in other ways could pay with their lifes for these actions. We know this practices f.e. from China.

Latao uses death penalty for hard crimers, but in no event for political reasons.

Aids to Emperor Brakiss and Lord Kahal are often executed when they can not achieve simple tasks or make clumsy mistakes.

If Druida's leader did that, we'd be in trouble...

Yes, including political dissidents. Those that threaten the rule of Imperator Tyrannvs, who has brought nothing but a new Pax Romana to this nation deserve nothing short of death!

Abattoir gives the death penalty to political dissendents. Their contributions to society cannot be beneficial to the reign of Antoine Tariskany, and must therefore be condemned. It is imperative that citizens of Abattoir remain in essence dormant. It is the only way to ensure the safety and goodwill of the nations citizens and the future of the country.

High crimes warrant execution, those who cannot be rehabilitated are sentenced to immediate death whilst those who are potential candidates for rehabilitation in old age are sent to an island off the coast (about the size of Tasmania) where they out their lives until reaching about fifty in near anarchic conditions. There’s no law in the Designated Zone of the island, the whole area is sectioned off by some simple yet effective methods.
Political crimes include destabilising actions yet in reality very few attempt such actions as the standards of liberty are fairly high and the standards of living are fairly high as well, the only real downside is a powerful military-industrial complex and a government that after forty years still feels the whole world might jump in and take it all away.

Fmjphoenix utilizes the death penelty only in extreme crimes which have resulted in one death or more. We take people killing other very seriously. Never kill someone in Fmjphoenix or else it will be your ending.

I wonder how your re-socialisation process works - can you bring crimers back into the nice society this way ?

Well, we don't have the death penalty as such, however we do turn a blind eye to any inmates in our prisons that get beaten to death for their crimes. A fate worse than the death penalty...

The death penalty is indeed in existence in Bedistan for convicted murderers. You kill somebody, you don't get the chance to repeat it.

However, there is no justification for the execution of political dissidents. As far as we're concerned, if it's not a crime, we can't punish you. Even treason cannot be punished with death, though it can earn one a life sentence.

Lamoni retains the death penalty for convicted murderers (normally done by 9mm pistol). Though, treason will get you a life sentence.

No, the Conclave is against the death penalty. However, our other form of punishment for severe crimes leaves the being in question with an effectively destroyed neural assembly.

You might not get executed for heinous political crimes in Starblaydia, but you may have to report for 're-education' by the Ministry of Communications.

So far I've never really done any sort of roleplay regarding the Designated Zone, I've got a load of stuff written up including operations by SO19 inside the area but never done anything about those who might actually reach fifty and thus become a candidate for release.
Assuming you managed to survive inside the DZ; so facing off gangs, corporate employment teams -slave labour-, hunger, SO19 operations, pollution and basically anything else that might limit ones lifespan then all you need do upon reaching fifty is to report yourself to the nearest control tower and identify yourself to them by means of four-figure barcode. There have been incidents of people trying to destroy such towers by feigning a report of fifty, so the tower staff are kinda edgy at times.

Some of the most dangerous people in the countries history are still living inside the DZ, one man in particular can still cause shudders to those who know about him. At present he leads the largest faction inside the DZ, even the corporate employment teams think twice before trying to recruit one of his people.
