george Posted June 1, 2005 Share Posted June 1, 2005 Cigarettes 'executed' at Bangkok jail BANGKOK: -- Cigarettes were yesterday finally given the punishment they deserve, when they were ritually 'executed' at Bangkok's Bang Khwang Prison. Charged with destroying the lives of Thais and people across the world, killing four people each second from cancer alone, 'Mr. Cigarette' had his head hacked off with a sword by the prison executioner. Figures released by Mr. Nathee Chitsawang, the Director-General of the Department of Corrections, suggest that around 80 percent of Thailand's 160,000-strong prison population is addicted to cigarettes. Mr. Nathee, who presided over yesterday's ceremony to mark the world's No Tobacco Day, admitted that prison inmates often resorted to smoking as a result of stress. To help reduce the number of smokers in Thailand's prisons, the department was limiting the time available for smoking, and restricting it to certain areas of jails, he said. At the same time, the department was providing alternative activities to give inmates something else to do with their time. Prisoners who successfully kick their habit are being offered the carrot of prizes from the department, and will be upheld as 'model prisoners. Any prisoners who violate anti-smoking regulations, on the other hand, will face tough disciplinary action. --TNA 2005-06-01 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ayakiawe Posted June 1, 2005 Share Posted June 1, 2005 Hey this is great news! Keep up the good work, kill all of them or else just put in more poisin inside the cig and kill off the smokers a bit faster. Its just too slow of a kill for now in my thinking. Let get the trash off planet Earth quickly! Before they take us all down with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
