"alabama executes Kenneth Eugene Smith, first inmate put to death with nitrogen gas"
"an alabama death row inmate was executed on thursday night, becoming the first person in the US to be put to death by nitrogen gas officials confirmed. Kenneth Eugene Smith,..."
"drugs used in lethal injections have become hard to come by in recent years, leading alabama to search for alternate means of execution. it settled on nitrogen gas."
The liberal new york post didn't have the decency to tell readers the back story: The drugs used in executions had become hard to come by, because pro-murderer terrorists have been terrorizing pharmacists out of carrying them. The post also did not deign to say who had hired Smith to kill Mrs. Sennett.

It makes sense now that Holt had this on.

It is stupid to use expensive methods of execution that are actually less humane. A bullet in the head is fast and painless--and cheap. The injected drugs take a while, the person is first paralyzed--nothing humane about them. Just shoot the person with a large caliber bullet--game over, no pain, almost no expense.
ReplyDeleteBullets aren't that cost effective. The Nazis found that out when they started the Holocaust by executing the Jews by gunshot. Eventually they figured out it was costing too much money, which is why they switched to Zyklon B gas, which is an animal pesticide. It's not humane, but it saves a lot of money. It's also the method of demise that animals like Smith and Lemaricus Davidson deserve.
DeleteI love the idea of killing the perp in the same manner they killed the vic.Punishment fits the crime.

The death penalty is the indicator of the morality, or lack thereof, of a society. Any society that elects to not execute vicious animals like Smith is an amoral one. A cancer needs to be excised, so that it is no longer a blight on society. Once again South Africa is the testing ground. Under Apartheid the death penalty was the death penalty: once convicted you had 18 months max before the state put a rope around your neck and dropped you through the gallows. Once Saint Mandela was elected, he outlawed the death penalty. The result? Violent crime and murder went through the roof. So yes, it is a deterrent.
ReplyDeleteShooting is indeed, very effective shot, either in the head or the back of the neck. This was used in many countries, including China to this very day that is how they execute the condemned quite often a whole bunch of time very fast and painless, Vernon convicted and condemned.
ReplyDeleteIf you are killing millions the cost of bullets would add up, but with only a few executions in the US, the cost of a single bullet is negligible--of course in China they make the family of the criminal pay for the cost of the bullet. The Russians shot so many, one after the other all night, that the shooters got very sore trigger fingers. So yes, for the rare execution in the US, a single bullet in the back of the head would be about the cheapest form of execution. I don't think we would stoop to the cheaper method used by the Cambodian Communists--a plastic bag over the head.
