As for using the organs of executed convicts, strikes me as a slippery slope. If a prisoner was in the Ted Bundy or Tim McVeigh 'guilty as sin' category I suppose it does seem good and proper for their organs to be used for some good. But if it becomes an assembly line, much too easy to increase the number of executions, and on flimsier grounds, which would appear to be the way it happens in China, that is, flimsy grounds.
