Don’t forget about throwing homosexuals from the tops of tall buildings. We can’t let ISIS have all the fine, right Governor LePage?

“What I think we ought to do is bring the guillotine back,” he continued. “We could have public executions.”

I am surprised LePage would say this!

Some factions during the French Revolution objected to the guillotine. They would rather see an executioner have to take several clumsy hacks at a person’s neck and considered the guillotine MUCH too humane.

I am sure that if LePage rethought his comment, he would agree and advocate for the axe instead.

LePage would do well to remember that many who sent people to the guillotine finally ended up under the blade themselves.

Earlier this month, LePage was criticized for comments about drug dealers while discussing the heroine epidemic in the state.

Yes, that “heroine” epidemic is bad. Those women just won’t stay out of Maine.

You’d think he would want more heroines in Maine. What does he have against strong women?

This man has some real issues! Hasn’t anyone suggested the possibility of having him evaluated psychologically? Maine residents deserve better than this kind of evil rhetoric :pensive: Surely you have residents of the state more than capable of being the governor. Sounds like the poor man has lost touch with reality.

How about public floggings? Stoning to death?

Uh-ho. Hope Trump doesn’t hear about this idea.
