Just because something is going to die does not take away its right to a pleasant life. I'm going to die. I still object to being tortured.
I have no problem with eating prisoners, except that most prisoners are extremely unhealthy. Bad meat. The rates of HIV, hepatitis (all types), and tuberculosis are 16 gazillion times higher in prisons than in the general population.
If the human would be killed anyway? Why not?
Note: I object to the death penalty. I think it should be abolished, and work toward that end. But if we're going to have it, then we should go all the way. Organ donation, food, whatever can be culled from the corpse. Just to be consistent, I also eat very little meat. Not currently vegetarian, for various reasons I will explain should you care, but neither am I a rabid carnivore.
