A new law on parental consent goes into effect this week that could make it punishable by death for a doctor to perform an abortion without parental approval or after the third trimester. We were thinking someone should have slipped in a provision to make it a capital offense to legislate ineffectively and fuck up school finance and kowtow to a few special interests. But, it would be hard to actually have a state legislature with only about five people not on death row.
The following are PinkDome's punishable by execution suggestions:
*Doctors that refuse to let us get generic drugs and insist on prescribing brand names only.
*Customer Service Reps that put us on eterna-hold.
*Hippies
*People that don't love puppies
Feel free to add your capital offense additions in the comments section.
All Scientologists.
Dude, I don't want to kill the hippies, but I second the Scientologists. Except for Beck - I like him.

People going slower than the speed limit or flow of traffic in the left lane.
Define "hippie."
Death penalty for slow people in the passing (left) lane, yes!
Death penalty for using the word "bring" when they should use "take," and vice versa. This has become a national epidemic.
Death penalty for people who drive Hummer.
DMWP, driving slow on the freeway would make most of Austin eligible for the death penalty. La la la, life is peachy in Austin and I still have a bowl left and I think I'll hit it on the way to work and drive 40 mph the whole way.
Marie, Nothing wrong with that as long as they stay in the right lane. If they don't, well, time to cull the population.
I love hippies. I can't believe PD hates the hippies. Who would beat the drums at Eeyore's Birthday? Shame on you PD!
Although they throw some good parties, hippies are terribly ineffective political organizers. (It's hard to out-organize the Republicans when you're stoned and obsessed with each others' feelings.)
shut up and stop breaking the rotation puff puff pass puff puff pass
Yeah, third on the hippies.
People who either can't read, or can't count getting in the "10 items only" lane.
I second hippies and add those goddamm Taco Cabana drive-thru workers who can never get my order right.
