If he did not want to die, he should not have murdered the innocent lady. It is as simple as that. I would submit that the lady wanted to live also and that she tried to get away as they were beating and stabbing the life out of her. And to add insult to injury, the two scumbags who murdered her were paid a thousand dollars each to murder her. Her life was worth a thousand dollars to the two slime balls. One of them rode the needle years ago. This sorry son of a bitch was not crying and carrying on as she was begging and pleading for her life as he was beating and stabbing her. He only cried when it was done to him what he done to her that his tears began flowing.

Everybody cries for the murderer, but nobody gives a damn about the innocent victim.

We are proud of executing murderers. Mercy to criminals is injustice to their victims. Save your sanctimonious posturing for your fellow liberals. His victim lost everything she was and everything she would ever be in 1989. Her killer stayed around for another 40 years breathing, eating, thinking, and living while she rotted in the ground. People like you disgust me.

Breathing nitrogen is exactly like breathing normal air, CO2 isn’t.

[Brooklyn Attitude]

“Breathing nitrogen without oxygen causes cells in the body to break down and leads to death.”

This is idiocy. Death is by simple asphyxiation.

I think Utah still drills perps by firing squad. Fairly rare but it happens.

[Cowgirl of Justice]

Yep - they should have told him ‘on the count of three, we will begin’ and then turned the gas on immediately after ‘oneeeeee.......’.

[Cowgirl of Justice]

AMEN.

[Nervous Tick]

>> Is this the same gas that was used on the Jews in WWII?

OMG YES!!! Every Jew in the world was made to breathe this horrible gas their entire life! Why, YOU are breathing it RIGHT NOW at 80% of full strength!

“...what if I’m wrongly convicted of murder, I could be put down by the state.”

Or, you could be murdered in the state you live in because criminals are not warned of the consequences of their a actions.

I'm with you.

<>"Conservatives who have a blood lust addiction need to examine why they like the thought of killing people."<>

What an asinine statement.

[Sertorius]

Why don’t they use the same medication that they use for assisted suicide?

1989? 35 YEARS?

[jimfr]

Five minutes, maybe not but how long can you hold your breath and not pass out? death would take that long plus gasping for a while before passing out and then some time to die.

No

Don’t be lazy look it up for yourself.

[Paul R.]

The Norks’ method of using an AA round is VERY quick (a millisecond from conscious and alert to not existing — far under the time it takes to perceive pain or anything else).

It’s a bit messy, however.

Good lord man! CO2 is a planet killer!! Don’t deprive the rest of us the few years we have left before climate change gets us all. Existential threat- I heard AOC say so!

[gundog]

Thank you.
