I really don’t care if the condemned feels pain during the execution.
As long is it is not pain for the sake of pain, but the pain of death is perfectly acceptable.
I’ll say one thing, it’s a lot faster than those lethal injection things.
Bringing back the firing squad for regular executions is fine, as it goes...
But would be fantastic to bring back hangings for treason.
Capitol cases should ALL be on a case by case basis.
Making excuses for a whole group based soley on age is as stupid as 3 strikes laws that send people to prison for stealing a candy bar.
In the end, it should be up to the states. I don’t believe capitol punishment is a deterence, but I could care less. I think it’s about retribution and that’s fine by me.
It is also a matter of religion in Utah. Mormon doctrine still supports that certain sins are not covered by the Blood of Christ and must be atoned for with your own blood. (Yes, I can source this using LDS sources and it is current teaching).
Look up Gary Gilmore execution 1977. It broke the logjam against executions by the Earl Warren Supreme Court. There had not been an execution in the U.S. since in 1962 of Caryl Chessman.
Of course, the execution was carried out only because Gilmore waived any further stays & sought his own death.
Yep, it works
Wait just a darned minute there. What is the metal composition of those bullets? Are they bad for the environment? Will the noise of the firing squad be harmful to the other inmates mental well being? Has there been a study (by a liberal university of course) on the overall effects and unintended consequences of this action/
Won’t work. Cigarettes are bad for your health.
Use nitrogen asphyxiation.
Yes but then, those needles can cause a nasty infection. And I bet that needle ends up in the landfill. Im pretty sure they re-use the butt plug though. /sarc
I remember reading a magazine article about Gilmore a year or so after he was executed. Boy, were he and his girlfriend big time losers!
Now if they could just execute Gary Glitter.
Worked well for Goya.
Wait, what about drawing and quartering. Or burning at the stake? Or even better die how their victoms did.
Mormonism
Death by hanging and death by firing squad are actually the best way to die, given the other choices.
Quick, and humane. Isn’t that what the libs are so concerned about ? Being humane ?
I think that I would choose a firing squad, if I was in that situation and had a choice. I am almost certain of it.
except for partial birth abortion.
that’s just peachy with leftards.
