This death should be celebrated. Hell, it should have been on Pay Per View.

His defense attorney is whining that he "was strapped to a gurney for four hours".
He's lucky a REAL grandparent didn't get to "entertain" him for four hours.
Justices Breyer, Ginsburg, Sotomayor, and Kagan signed forceful dissents.

Why is an execution horrible to see. Would breathing be hard to see? Death and breathing are parts of the human existence.
The stigma of an execution is a creation of defense attorneys and European wanna be Ameritrash

The reason for the delay is called contemplation of death. He had delayed the execution for years and now was allowed to contemplate his death in his last minutes.

If we started doing public executions there would be an increase in murders as nutcases would want to be on TV and would kill to do so. Anyone wanna bet?

"Execution is always painful." It should be but isn't the way they do it nowadays. Just think of it as a HUGE overdose of propofol before your colonoscopy. Actually kind of "relaxing"!😎

It would have been a better contemplation with a Mapp torch and a pair of linesman’s pliers to focus his attention...

They have to be justices because they are to ignorant to be clerks.

I have no problem with public justice, I merely needed to temper my comment for the Kid-glove, FR snowflakes.

According to “the internet,” there are about 2,700 people on death row in the US.

I hope that Lon’s long life has been a living hell, but I doubt it.
He’s probably living large on a Federal pension.
But someday he has to stand before the Throne of God, and get what he deserves.

When are they going to get around to executing the Boston Bomber, Dzhokhar Tsarnaev or the Ft. Hood killer, Nidal Hasan?

He’s probably retired with a nice pension by now. Or, he could be a gun for hire. Either way, he’s still breathing, damn the luck!
