Waiting for the hand wringing liberals to complain about "evil guns" being used.

It’s simple: Ready. Aim. Fire.

Why are we dependent on European manufacturers for these drugs in the first place? There are no American companies which supply these items??? How did that situation arise???
To: PROCON
They could work on more gun control laws and limit this....but then we’d just resort to hanging, and you’d have to corner the entire rope industry and make people sign purchase agreements on rope usage....to render hangings obsolete.

I’d only add hymn singing before the perp is stood in front of the firing squad to make them scream louder.

IIRC, one of the shooters has a fake bullet....

They give the condemned a .50 caliber tracer round — and a blowtorch.

Why no use of nitrogen chamber? Not messy, no poking, no weird chemicals, no pain, perp just dozes off.

The problem is,the fake(blank)has no recoil.The live rounds do.Any shooter will be able to tell the difference.

I find _that_ cruel to the team. Lifetime unsure whether one contributed (good or bad).

An interesting point: 5 rifles, one loaded with a blank. Anyone here think they would be fooled with a blank?
When I taught the kids how to shoot, I would occasionally put a snap-cap in the magazine, in some random order with the live rounds. There is nothing that reveals 'flinching' like pulling the trigger on a round that goes click!

I’m more on board with the perp getting off’ed the same way he killed his victims.

I find it comforting in a way. Different strokes.

How does it work? It’s easy. We see it every day here on FR. Arrange everyone in a circle. Tell them to aim. Start shooting.

I didn’t think it up...I just said what I’ve heard in the past. Could be wrong or right. Heck, for all I know it could be a rubber bullet or something.
