Van Damn

Are you a totalitarian state that appreciates the portable, grim efficiency of a firing squad, but would prefer the more socially acceptable method of lethal injection? Well now you can have both:
Makers of the death vans say the vehicles and injections are a civilized alternative to the firing squad, ending the life of the condemned more quickly, clinically and safely. The switch from gunshots to injections is a sign that China "promotes human rights now," says Kang Zhongwen, who designed the Jinguan Automobile death van in which "Devil" Zhang took his final ride.
Also, I just tried to visit the manufacturer's website and it attempted to infect my computer with a virus. Thanks Jinguan Automobile Company!
