The common sense part. I regard claims that death by lethal injection is cruel and unusual punishment under the Eighth Amendment as utterly frivolous. As I understand it, and I could be wrong, the Eighth Circuit stayed the execution to consider this frivolous claim.
The State of Missouri sought then sought relief from the Supreme Court, arguing, in substance, why are you interfering with our sovereign processes to let these evil murderers litigate a frivolous claim. Alito and Roberts both denied relief to the State of Missouri. This is not an action that I think any genuinely conservative judge (of which there are only 2-3 on the Supreme Court) would take.
When you see the truth, and you see that most other people are blind to it, it tends to make you rant. But the facts are the facts, at least as reported so far.

I agree that common SENSE would allow us to get rid of every thug, immediately. We should pull speeders over and shoot them. People would quickly stop speeding. It is the justice meted out in the old west. However, we are not dealing with 'common sense", nor the old west. Our system of "justice" has been slowed by overburdened calendars, and increasing populations.
You are claiming to be a lawyer, so give us the LEGAL cites for your "opinion". The convicted man's lawyer evidently made some good points. You have made NONE!
I suggest you haven't any. If you were truly an attorney, you would not be stating your frivolous claims. You would be laughed out of Court...
This court rejects them, too.
