Authority is the 'moral high ground'? Wife of killer Kenneth Eugene Smith 'cried out' during his historic 22-minute-long nitrogen execution - which witness described as 'horrific' as he thrashed and 'convulsed' on gurney.
Since I was a small kid, when capital punishment was still legal in the UK, I have felt it was sick and ridiculous to say killing is wrong and so we are killing you for killing. It's mentally deranged.
But doing it this way means that those who sanctioned it should be certified.

A good punch in the stomach would have fixed that.
And messy.
Hanging is clean, reliable, quick, and cheap.
First, he lies about the execution then he concludes society has no right to remove predators from its population.
Typical liberal stupidity with no self preservation instincts.
“2. The has NO PROBLEM calling for the execution of Kyle Rittenhouse, Trump, and the Jan 6th tourists - again, ‘situational’ ethics regarding their objections.”
Worth repeating.
Icke says “I have felt it was sick and ridiculous to say killing is wrong and so we are killing you for killing. “
Kidnapping is wrong, so by Icke’s logic kidnappers shouldn’t be apprehended and held against their will.
There may be arguments against capital punishment, but that’s not a very good one.
I am for quick and painless executions for extreme crimes. It should be painless because we should strive to be a civilized society even as we have to deal with uncivilized savages.
In today’s world that should not be that hard to accomplish. Operations are carried out under anesthesia without people thrashing about.
Line up people on death row and then experiment until they get it right. Figure it out.
Albert Pierrepoint would approve.
It’s a very childish argument isn’t it. The author is railing against justice itself. He’s an anarchist.
Meanwhile, his 'spiritual counselor' had an amateurish Lenin vibe going, his media craphound approach dooms the whole story to one news cycle and many more N masks...
I don’t buy the terrible death story here. The killer was probably trying to hold his breath. There a numerous accounts of people collapsing and dying in nitrogen-rich environments.
In March 1981 there was a NASA mishap surrounding Columbia that killed an engineer in a pure-nitrogen environment.
The story of two guys who walked into a space to rescue someone were themselves dead before they realized what was happening.
From the Internet: “In situations where there is too much nitrogen (or other asphyxiant gases such as helium or argon) our bodies are not getting any oxygen so they don’t produce any carbon dioxide, and there is no signal to breathe. (Low oxygen levels are also a trigger to breathe – but they are a much weaker signal than high carbon dioxide levels in the blood.) It only takes a few breaths of an inert gas before all the carbon dioxide is expelled, and the body decides it doesn’t have to breathe anymore. This is why nitrogen asphyxiation is so deadly. It happens quickly and people don’t realize they are in distress until it’s too late.”
Spare the rod and spoil the child... are you a spoiled little child david?
HE MAJORITY OF problems in this country are due to lax consequences for criminals. Check out countries that execute people for simply bri gi g drugs into their country. Not a whole lot of drug crimes there. Check out towns that are heavily armed... not a whole lot of crime there because criminals know they could pay the ultimate price if they try-
Check out ny- .ots and lots of crime there because that state is so disgustingly lax on punishing criminals! California too- crimes have exploded there to the point that now cops are punishing law abiding citizens for simply calling to report crimes! Crime is through the roof there-
He murdered a woman. I hope he’s burning in hell. No tears from me. He got what he deserved. It’s too bad it didn’t last a little longer than 22 minutes.
Did the wife of Kenneth Smith cry out for the innocent lady that was having the life beaten out of her? Did she help her husband spend the thousand dollars he was paid for murdering the lady. It appears that all of Kenneth Smith’s tears began to flow when the State of Alabama began to do to him what he did to the innocent lady.
Why should I care about anything David Icke says?
Interesting. I wish I could find that show. I remember they had a video of Navy divers in a decompression tank and something happened where the nitrogen levels were too high and you could see the divers laughing as if they were on drugs. It might be on Youtube
Ha ha! I just went to Youtube to check and typed in “most humane way to die” and this is what they sent back:
“You’re not alone
If you or someone you know is having a hard time, talk to somebody today.
988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline”
LOL!! And they won’t let me past that screen
At the very least, THAT guy will not kill again. Real deterrence.
I’m OK with the death penalties for especially heinous murders. Methods should be either hanging or firing squad.
Moonbat Freakshow Weirdoes hardest hit!
It only took 35+ years to execute this man after a speedy trial and conviction.
Ecclesiastes 8:11 NKJV
Because the sentence against an evil work is not executed speedily, therefore the heart of the sons of men is fully set in them to do evil.
I’m sure the people who are murdered would agree with him.
