So what does this have to do with the execution? Nothing ; just an excuse to blast a persons faith.

Lawmakers, upset by the media circus, voted to eliminate the firing squad as an option. But the law they passed has a grandfather clause for the five death-row inmates who chose the firing squad before the ban.

It has a lot to do with the execution. The reason Utah still has the firing squad is because they (at least some) do not believe they can be forgive for murder unless their blood is shed.

It gets back to the LDS teaching (long standing) that the Blood of Christ is NOT sufficient.

Need quotes?
