Oh, silly me. I thought the title was referring to Terri Schiavo.

Hang the sonzabitches. It's time tested and traditional. A proper drop ensures a quick demise. We could fly someone in from Singapore to train us on how to do it properly. It would cost a whole lot less than the legal fees dealing with these chickens*** lawsuits.

And could we have a report on how the victim(s) of this nice man felt while he was killing them?

Details. You'd think government bow wows would get it down straight.

Mr Diaz, in my opinion, was not properly anesthetized. Mr. Diaz, in my opinion, was not properly executed . . . because it shouldn't take 27 years--27 YEARS--for justice to be done and this murderer to be punished!

he took 34 minutes to die about twice as long as usual. He took 27 years to die about 27 times as long as it should have.

"Mark Heath, a Columbia University anesthesiologist who has testified on the behalf of death row inmates in about 20 states." Columbia is as leftist as possible, and anesthesiologists are the highest paid of surgeons.
Considering his multi-state vacation to spare killers from justice, these facts are a perfect storm for moral and ethical cluelessness.

A doctor told a panel reviewing Floridas lethal injection procedures that executioners did the worst thing they could do during the botched killing of condemned inmate Angel Diaz last year. Time to bring back the guillotine!
To: Graybeard58
Plastic needles threaded into Diazs arms tore through his veins, splashing chemicals into his fleshNothing inflamitory in those words. >:-<

He deserved more than the "fish out of water" look.
I too am so sick of worrying about the murderers.
BIZARRO WORLD.

Very simple solution:
Have a man ready with a gun to put a slug into the criminal's head if something starts to go wrong.
Im not sure why they bother with these stupid injections when its just as quick and probably cheaper to put down the criminal with a gun.
Way too much concern for the criminals comfortable execution and too little for the victims.
I have as much desire for revenge as anybody, but this sounds as bad as the scene in The Green Mile where the sponge is dry during the execution.
People already are against execution to the point of absurdity, why give them ammunition? These predators should be dispatched with coldly and efficiently without people screwing it up and scaring people.
To: Graybeard58
Whether Diaz felt pain is important because the U.S. Constitution forbids the government from exposing any prisoner to cruel and unusual punishment.
No, in my mind death by fireants is a bit cruel and it's only unusual because of these bleeding heart criminal lovers draging it out for 27 years arguing about the color of the tubes the drugs are deleivered in.

This so called expert has testified in 20 states. Wonder how rich he is now?
To: Graybeard58
Maybe they should go back to hanging.
