Larry Flynt wrote Friday he doesn't want the man who shot him to be executed next month in Missouri, adding that he wants to personally torture the man, ABC News reported Oct. 18.

It has been almost 35 years since Larry Flynt, a porn publisher was shot by a certain Joseph Paul Franklin, but just a month away from the death penalty of the shooter, Flynt wrote in an essay to in The Hollywood Reported that he does "not want to see him die."

The now paralyzed porn publisher expressed that it is better to let his shooter suffer inside the prison cell for many more years than simply give him a quick exit through "a lethal injection."

Moreover, Flynt also discussed that he would like to personally torture the man using "a pair of wire-cutter and pliers," for he claimed that he is simply against death penalty.

The man who was shot by Franklin even mentioned that a death penalty would cost more than life imprisonment without parole, which he maintained is the better option between the two.

Larry Flynt was shot in March 6, 1978, while he was in a Georgia courthouse fighting obscenity charges. He was reportedly rushed to the intensive care unit due to the life-threatening damage the shot has caused him.

Though he managed to survive, Flynt spent the years wheelchair-bound due to the severe damage on his central nervous system.

A year after the incident, Franklin confessed that he was the one who shot Flynt after he was arrested for shooting an interracial couple that time.

According to Franklin he was furious when he read a Hustler magazine spread, written by Flynt, featuring interracial couples, one thing the white supremacist said he is strongly against.

"As I see it the sole motivating factor behind the death penalty is vengeance, not justice," Flynt wrote. "I firmly believe that a government that forbids killing among its citizens should not be in the business of killing people itself."

BBC reported that Missouri Attorney General Chris Koster said in a statement that by setting Franklin's execution this November 20, the court had made "an important step to see that justice is finally done for the victims and their families".
