I sometimes feel a divide between and other people who are against the death penalty when it comes to the topic of sex offenders, because their argument often seems to go "the death penalty in that case is bad because it can be targeted against trans people/ queer people/ gay people", and my argument is that I don't think the government should have the right to kill people

Irezumi kei (tattoo penalty) as depicted in the [徳鄰厳秘録 - Tokuringenbiroku], a kind of penalty instruction book compiled in 1814, digitalized by the National Archives of Japan.
CW for this post about Edo period judiciary => mentions of physical punishment, torture, death penalty (text only, no details, no graphic illustrations) . The irezumikei pages above are p.19 to 25.
I won't reproduced the illustrations here, but the Tokuringenbiroku book also presents other Edo period "punishments" and death penalties, like different types of goumon (torture), gokumon (decapitation and exposure of the head to public view), kakei (stake), haritsuke (crucifixion), or tameshigiri (sword cut testing, here on executed convict corpse). Please proceed to the full book according to your sensibilities!
Back to irezumi kei : the markings of character Akaza (from Kimetsu no Yaiba/Demon's Slayer) are directly inspired by those, same for Mugen in Samurai Champloo for example:
Tumblr media
After Tokugawa Yoshimune's reforms abolished bloodier punishments (nose or ear cutting) for lesser crimes (like theft, gambling or fraud), irezumikei spread, inspired by Chinese bokkei practices.
Yet, zainin (lawbreakers) were also often beaten or whipped (tataki), which could be a "light" sentence or more far extreme one. Women tended to be imprisoned instead.
Punishment tattoos also often went alongside tokorobarai (banishment), which had several levels depending on the crime. You could be banished to a remote island, just away from your city, or forbidden to enter a certain perimeter.
Exile is why different areas had different marks, placed on the arms or faces, easily identifying the person as a criminal convicted in another region.
Number of lines or dots were often used to symbolize repeated offences (pic below source). Most of the times, getting 3+ irezumikei could grant you death penalty.
Tumblr media
Irezumikei maybe be why criminals came to use extravagant tattoos, as to cover their infamous marks, leading to the yakuza association with body ink.
Yet, other strata of population also favored figurative tattoos, so the link between criminals and tattoing in Edo period is not self-evident.
Some shapes of -sode (sleeve part of a tattoo) for example left arm interior bare, maybe to prove then that no armband tattoo was hidden underneath a bigger design.

A character has been accused and convicted of a crime. A particularly heinous one - potentially world-ending levels of evil, I mean. Even capital punishment wouldn't be enough.
Luckily, this character cannot stay dead.
Perhaps after the fifth death they can get a retrial - see if they should be forgiven already.

this is sort of a disorganized ramble even though im trying to be coherent be warned
cw death/suicide discussion (also in the tags)
whatever you want to say about him regarding abuse allegations and whatever else might come to light, you should be able to understand that Liam's death is a terrible way to go
i think i was saying the same thing back when the Titan submersible's accident happened, but this is one of those deaths I wouldn't wish on anyone, no matter how terrible of a person they are, and shouldn't be a subject of jokes
(sure it's funny that a ceo imploded in his half-assed submersible, but making light of a gruesome death like that is fucking terrifying)
i remember one of my high school roommates and friends say about a death like that being the most terrifying way to go especially if it's by your own hand, because people will start realizing they don't want to die way too late
and then you're dead
obviously we don't know if it was his decision or if something else happened, but any realization that you're going to die if you don't do anything and you don't want to die is too late as soon as you're falling
(also this is another aside but the fact he was clearly struggling with addiction, something that we've seen as a pattern that happens especially to young people who become too famous too fast and leads to death is just something that we've seen so many times and it's tragic every time) (again, regardless of what kind of person somebody was)
i will say i am not all that attached to the person that he was, i am attached to the fact that he's been part of the band that shaped a good part of my teenhood, and his death is really marking the end of what could have been
remember those edits we used to see of the band members getting old? the fact we wont see that happen is what is actually the most tragic to me
31 is too young to die
again, whatever you want to say about him, my statements stand regardless
it's not about if he is worth mourning or anything, it's just about having the human decency to understand this is just another person who was lost in an event that did not need to happen
(and god knows there are so many deaths like that these days)

Currently getting closer to my practical exam day and practising my monologue is so fun, especially since it’s my source. Like. “This is a court of justice. You’ll get justice here.” Yes of course she’s going to get justice here, but only for her crimes, and the penalty is death! Haha. Why am I so maniacal about this.

Im here today to talk to you about one of my special interests;
Señor Danny Trejó
Tumblr media
This man has lived such a life at age 79; and is still kicking, but I think people don’t really appreciate all this man has been through to be who he is. I genuinely believe his biopic needs to be made bc oh my goodness.
CW: drug usage, incarceration experiences, tough home life, murder, stabbing, death penalty, violence (feel free to lmk more and I’ll add as pointed out)
Also to note; this is a historical summary. Aka the facts with as little of my opinion as I can manage (while considering that I do have a bias), I do not condone the violent acts mentioned. That being said I do sympathize with many actions being a product of circumstance and that this is a man trying to own his past while using his present to make a better future for himself and others. And THAT is why I respect the hell out of him
Ok let’s start this; spoiler alert I look like
Tumblr media
By the end
Ok so Im gonna have to categorize this baby; a note, most of this is from his Wikipedia page and subsequent cited sources
Tumblr media
Personal
Tumblr media
-was born in (1944) as the child of an extramarital affair; his mothers husband was away fighting in WW2 at the time
-He’s been a fan of the LA Rams since their early days (1946) and some of his earliest memories are from sneaking into games as a child

-Trejo is a registered Democrat
-battled liver cancer in 2010, moved to be closer to his mom in 2011. She passed while filming the Muppets most wanted in 2013. Although sad, Trejo recalls he didn’t truly break down until Kermit offered his apologies in character (due to his macho personality)
-In 2019 Trejo witnessed a car accident and helped rescue a small ychild from that very wreckage (trapped in the car seat in an overturned SUV)
Tumblr media
Prison
Tumblr media
-was first arrested at age 10, first incarcerated at age 12 at Eastlake Juvenile Hall
-was in various prisons within the California prison system from 1956-1969 (conflicting accounts say one term may have been till ‘72)
-notable stints include; three years at Camp Glen Rockey in San Dimas for stabbing a sailor in the face with broken glass, a stint in Los Angeles County in 1961 where he met Charles Manson (who Trejo describes as a “dirty, greasy, scrawny white boy” who was an allegedly talented hypnotist), Soledad in 1968 where he hit a guard with a rock during a prison riot on Cinco de Mayo. Due to this he was sent to solitary confinement and faced capital charges and the death penalty. He also completed the 12 step program at this time.
-His most memorable stint was in San Quentin in 1966; his heron use was exacerbated here. Here he was a debt collector and drug dealer; often engaging and witnessing acts of violence and occasional murder. He also picked up boxing in this stint and became both a champion of the lightweight and welterweight divisions throughout his other prison experiences.

Today him and Mario remain great friends and both speak around the country in both juvenile detention centres as well as rehabilitation centres about their experiences
Film
Tumblr media
-his character Machete was created FOR the Spy Kids film
-the creator of the Spy Kids franchise is his second cousin
-Danny originally got into acting after meeting a boy in a sober living house who explained he worked a day job as an extra to make 50$ a day (in 1980); between the “easy money”, availability with his schedule and publicity he could provide to the Western Living House Org, Danny decided to find an agent for background rolls
-After being asked to help with cocaine issues on the set of Runaway Train, Trejo was recognized by the screenplay writer, Edward Bunker. Bunker has been a fellow inmate with Trejo in San Quentin and was also a fan of his boxing work. Bunker helped hire Trejo as a boxing trainer on the film and negotiated Trejos pay to be closer to ~$330 a day, due to his additional help on set and general knowledge/experience
-Bunker also helped land Trejo a role as a background actor in the prison scenes in Runaway
-Penitentiary 3 (1987) was his first billed role, during which he met one of the members of the Galbino crime family (one of the 5 mafia families in New York)
-in 1991 Trejo turned down a role offered by Edward James Olmos due to a call from the don of the Mexican Mafia advising him to take a role in Blood In, Blood Out (1993) instead
-During the filming of Blood In, Blood Out; Trejo experienced PTSD while filming his scenes in San Quentin. Especially when filming the scenes in C550, his previous cell from his time incarnated there
-Whike filming Anaconda (1997), Trejo was able to negotiate a higher salary when filming in Venezuela. As Trejo enjoyed leaving the hotel to socialize in his off time…during a possible coup. A particular incident with a group of teenagers with AK-47s brandished at Trejo over his combat boots, helped Trejo negotiate the higher salary to REMAIN at the hotel in his down time
-Trejo contracted Hepatitis C shortly before filming Spy Kids and concluded treatment and recovery just before its premiere (however had gotten so I’ll that his cast noticed his weight loss and demeanour in a different project filmed during spy kids post production)
-Trejo produced his first film in 2014
-To date Trejo has 445 acting credits on IMDB (between 1985-2023) and 84 on screen deaths (12 TV, 72 movies) according to cinemorge (+4 are music video deaths, +1 video game death)
Tumblr media
-in total that would make Trejos risk of onscreen death per project roughly 20% per project (89/445)

Also that death penalty was inspired by seeing the reaction to the murder of a tech executive in San Fransisco, Bob Lee, where all of San Fransisco's VC & tech types took three seconds to unleash their latent fascist, raving about how it had to be a drug-addicted homeless person and the streets must be purged of undesirables and that liberal DAs have blood on their hands and how they should stage public hangings since "the lives of five hung drug dealers are worth the lives of everyone else"
Anyway it turns out Bob Lee was likely murdered by a fellow tech executive he knew, and all the people who rushed to advocate for mass state violence seem bound to never mention it again or going "yeah in this case it wasn't, BUT maybe next time". California is being invaded, say the invaders to the people they displaced
