Re: A History of Lethal Injection
That's all bureaucratic baloney and red herring-ism. People overdose in the hundreds or thousands from heroin world wide every single day. (Including weekends and holidays.) And there is absolutely NO SHORTAGE of confiscated illegal heroin in police and federal evidence rooms at all times. The truth is that there is NO PROBLEM, nor has there ever been. Only people with agendas. Just hook up 50 times the lethal dose of heroin to an IV and the Psycho Killer (Qu'est-ce que c'est) is history quickly and painlessly...not that a completely painless exit is of supreme importance. |

Re: A History of Lethal Injection
using confiscated heroin to cause overdoses in inmates? thats not painless at all and you would have far greater issues than that if used confiscated drugs to do revenge killings. and there isnt a shortage in the sense that the drug isnt available, there is a shortage in the sense that the drug is no longer being made in the US and the companies outside the US wont sell them for the purpose the US wants to use the drugs for. it has medical uses and isnt supposed to be used to kill people. |

Re: A History of Lethal Injection
Heroin overdose at that level is not only painless, it is almost instantaneous. Faster than the body can register pain. We do agree on one thing. One of us...is divorced from Reality. Lethal Injection is NOT a problem. It's easy. Fast. Straightforward. People with agendas are the only problem. |

Re: A History of Lethal Injection
heroin OD is far from painless. this is from somebody who has been very close to opiate OD a few times. i have to hand it to you..... you do impress me in one way: in the sense that you are either the least logical, least informed poster here or the best troll ever. |

Re: A History of Lethal Injection
while this isnt an argument proving that the death penalty is immoral, it does show something telling.... this is a list of the countries that still use the death penalty. as you can see, only the 'best', most civilized countries use the death penalty. |

Re: A History of Lethal Injection
I don't really understand the practical problems with executing prisoners - it should be a no brainer. Nitrogen gas is cheap, easily available and painless - pretty much overcoming all the problems of lethal injections, electrocution and the old cyanide gas methods. Gas chambers already exist and there's no big safety issue in clearing the chamber afterwards. Nitrogen in the air is harmless as air is mostly made of nitrogen anyway. Death is very quick and very certain with the condemned prisoner having no symptoms until they die. Admittedly it's not very gruesome but then death itself is the ultimate punishment not the effort to kill the condemned. See http://www.slate.com/articles/news_a...h_penalty.html |

Re: A History of Lethal Injection
I think that a if you're going to execute someone, then who gives a fuck about being humane about it? Halftime at the superbowl, baseball bats and clubs to the head...... Decapitation by sword...... run over by trucks...... the cheaper the better. The real issue, IMHO, is that the general population that is in favor of execution wants it to be as bloodless and quick as possible..... So that they can forget that someone is actually being murdered. If they had to witness a person being clubbed to death with a 3 wood, how many death penalty advocates would still be in favor? What if they had to be the one to swing the club? Fuck, I'd bet if it came down to it 99% of them wouldn't even be able to watch a watered down method of homicide such as lethal injection. Just think, you could sell PPV capitol punishment and help pay for the prison system? Why not? If its your tax dollars paying for it, and your legal system that allows it, why not? |

Re: A History of Lethal Injection
Same here. Always interests me. Have you seen the Werner Herzog doc about the teens who were executed in texas? I’m drawing a blank on the name of it. It was chilling. I spent the whole film with my heart rate pounding. It’s the scariest “thing” to me, to be lead down that corridor. Oh God.
