COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) – Ohio says it’s following a mandatory checklist for putting inmates to death as it prepares for the state’s first execution in more than three years.

Items on that checklist include determining that the state has enough lethal drugs for the execution, evaluating the inmate’s mental health and checking his veins for the insertion of IVs.

The nice thing about the firing squad is you don’t have to worry about the veins before insertion. I’ll settle for Ohio’s method, since the point is to permanently remove evil predators from our midst, but I’m okay with bringing back the old ways too.

Is the governor Kasich staging this, just so he can step in and stop it, once he has a large enough national audience?

No....may he burn in hell.

He raped and killed a 3 year old.

There are certain acts that are irredeemable. This is one of them.

I am of the opinion that executions need not be painless.

What the Constitution requires is that the execution be performed in a manner that does not cause pain for the sake of causing pain.

“Three years old. That is a lot to repent for.”

Try three hours old! Yes it’s happened.

Just like going to the dentist using NO2. Just adjust the nitrogen slowly, he’ll get a nice buzz before checking out
