Gary Gilmore, maybe?

I think at the time, the condemned had a choice of method in Utah. Or could at least request one of the three(?) methods available in the state.

Thailand, iirc, no longer has the DP, but for a number of decades, it was a single gunner emptying a magazine from a SMG hard-mounted to a post. I think the condemned was afixed face-first to the wall, and got it in the back.

Shoot him. It’s fast and he won’t suffer long. Didn’t they do that to a guy in Utah years ago.

______________Gary Gilmore

So then hang him. Though guillotine would be better.

Kavanaugh is a Catholic as I am. The Church calls us to have a consistent ethic on life from the unborn to the criminal.

I believe in the legal necessity Death Penalty — but not just thrown to people like Halloween candy. Anybody with a healthy distrust of government or civic authority should understand that. I do not always trust the people handing out the sentences. Period.

“It causes blood-filled tumors to grow in his head, neck and throat, which his attorneys say could rupture during the state’s lethal injection process.”

That's only cosmetic. It isn't cruel to the condemned; just the people who have to witness it.

“...a firing squad, electrocution, hanging, lethal gas, being burned at the stake...”

While it might be unusual, it would lesson the chance of a cruel “choking on his own blood to death” if they did all of the above I would think.

(Burning at the stake? Really? I think I would prefer to choke on my own blood.)

The DEA has seized several kilos of fentanyl lately. 5 mg injected intravenously will kill him times over.

Why not just use carbon monoxide and cremate the body?

All the exotic lethal injection, electrocution, firing squad stuff is a bunch of theatrics.

“”which his attorneys say could rupture during the state’s lethal injection process.””

And wouldn’t that be terrible? Now we have attorneys with medical degrees?

Just lock the guy up in a room with democrats - take your pick - Hillary, Pelosi, Kamala, Maxine, the buggy eyed person from NYC or HOW ABOUT THE gal running for governor here in GA - provide him with enough implements and he’ll choose his own way to die! Done with it!

That’s nothing compared to seeing a man who’s arm got shredded off by a small wood chipper. It looks like raw beef.

Gilmore chose firing squad and donated his organs,

I think they shot him in the heart.

A head shot would have been more efficient

Just drop him off on the south side of chicago with an opposite gang T-shirt.

The outcome wouldn’t be at ALL unusual
