.....”They get you high and stop your heart., stop it when you are high as hell feeling great”.....
As soon as his heart stopped...guarantee you that high didn’t last past those minute seconds...he’s headed for a downer bigtime!
‘All he did was go to sleep’ ... and his soul was swept away to everlasting torment by one far more evil than he could even try to be. All he did was drop into Hell! His soul will never sleep, and his torment is everlasting.
I can deal with the physic pain.
They need to allow an open volunteer
list for these things. There would be no
shortage of victim’s family volunteers.
Well, what you wrote may be accurate, but this pos is, nonetheless, dead. He was in no way tranquil at the time of his demise as reflected in his obscenities directed at the warden, who really had nothing to do with it. On the other hand, he proved he is just an evil guy. Another upstanding denizen of Hell.
As I have opined here before, I am opposed to the DP, not because these people don’t deserve it; I believe they do. I am opposed to it because it is not administered fairly. I would like to see a rich guy/ pretty woman, get executed (assuming he/she had due process and deserved it (read Arias, here, pretty not rich, but female, not male)).
I did a DP case on habeas corpus, for six years. The case only ended because the condemned got executed. I can’t say he didn’t deserve it, but I can say, at least to my satisfaction, that it’s not fairly imposed, and is, therefore, a violation of equal protection.
I could be wrong about that.
I am not absolutely certain because no system is perfect and one individual or entity, including the criminal justice system, should not let perfection be the enemy of the good. So, I am a bit ambivalent, but I still think the DP is unfairly applied.
All he did was go to sleep."
Daniels said Cobbs punishment in the end was far too easy.
Agree 100%.
Bring back the chair.
Sounds like someone that deserved it, and should have been put down a long time ago.
Some people just deserve to die. We can’t let our personal emotions interfere with that fact. Public execution should be so scary it makes a mean pos piss in his pants watching. Deterrence - it work.
The disgusting reality is that 9 years is fairly quick these days.
I was going to suggest a firing squad, but in my case if it were a line up of really cool classic rifles I’d almost consider it an honor.
I think people who mu*der other people should be executed the very same way that they did the deed...or at least the same amount of pain they gave their victim.
Ditto -only televised. Pay per view would probably bring in plenty to help pay for the trials, the public defenders and the incarceration.
A Oak chair,or bench(for multiples) hooked up to a Lighting Rod and set up at first available thunder storm. The waiting after being seated would give them time to think. Just prior to a strike, when it’s close, one will hear a noise similar to frying bacon. True!
Texas and Florida have some great electrical storms.
One may be forgiven for supposing that after this demonic character arrived at his ultimate destination, it was NOT AT ALL “so great.”
Why don’t they just use Pine-Sol? A large dollop of that might not be pleasant but it would work. And for pennies.
Oh, my view is not personal at all. It is strictly legal, and based upon my understanding of the Equal Protection Clause of the 14th Amendment.
I am not saying I am correct or that you are necessarily incorrect. I am merely posting my disinterested, not personal, opinion. As long as poor guys get executed while wealthy guys get lesser punishment for the same offense, I am uncomfortable. I mean they are both going to Hell. I just think they should arrive on the same bus.
If I took all the law stuff I’ve done personally I would be a lot crazier than I am now.
BTW, I never had any kind of personal relationship or even rapport with my former death row client. But, in addition to being poor, he was a sociopath in my unmedical opinion. However, he was not insane, which is a legal not medical term. IOW, he knew right from wrong.
I agree with you about deterrence. If the State chooses to implement the DP, it should be on TV, or in the town square -just impose it fairly.
Bunch of bullshit bravado. Performance of the terrified.
“Im glad he said this because he revealed exactly what the death penalty is today thanks to liberals: An absolute joke.”
The libs love criminals too, as long as they are raping and killing other people.
