Hanging as a form of execution in the U.S. did not last occur as far back in the past as many might assume.

Epstein did not kill himself! Wasn’t that more recent?

We still have Adam Schiff. Hang him! and then give him a fair trial.

Color me puzzled.

I had a colonoscopy a couple of weeks ago. I was wheeled into the operatory, given an injection and I was out like a light. Anything after that point would have quickly done the job without cruelty.

Gary Gilmore is still my HERO. He demanded a firing squad for his execution, because he wanted to “die like a man”.

(don’t get me wrong, he was still a murderer and I’m glad he’s dead, but I still respect him for not being a dick about his demise)

Well, he was the last SO FAR - but the list from the coup is getting longer by the day.

I think in the novel “In Cold Blood”, Dick Hickock and Perry Smith were the last people hanged in Kansas.

Fascinating, in a very weird way. I suppose hanging is a very effective way to kill people since so many amateurs do themselves in that way. That always amazes me, I could never figure it out! Me & Jeffrey Epstein, we’d never do that.
