Without passing judgment on the merits of the death penalty, I have to point out that a 35% failure rate means we’re still batting 650. We’d win either league’s batting championship with that.
That’s probably how it should be. No muss no fuss, just done. We can still permanently remove them from society and it wont be cruel or *unusual. No hand wringing or pearl clutching …and it’s 100 percent organic!
I know some will not be happy unless the guilty are made to suffer. Who wants to take the time to care? I think the suffering will be in how much of “not a big deal” it is while being administered your lethal injection with near assembly line speed and little fanfare, like stock animals. A subtle slap across the face on their way out the door
- Especially not cruel or unusual under democrats who seem to thrive on people being able to shoot up and fall over where ever they please.

“Several were agonisingly drawn out as officials tried to secure a vein through which to inject lethal drugs, leading lawyers to describe the process as a form of torture. Others were carried out in violation of state protocols. “
Torture? Oh please… I’ve been at Vanderbilt hospital where it took several attempts to “secure a vein”. Unpleasant, yes. Torture, no. Describing as such is torturing reality.
Put a 12ga slug in the perp’s melon. That should sufficiently relax the perp so that any difficulty finding a vein won’t be torturous. sigh….
A .50 BMG round still retails around $4 - $5. One round to the forehead will result in immediate cessation of all brain activity and neurological functions. You can’t even buy enough rope to hang a man that cheap.
The chemical that kills is cheap and readily available. You can make it at home, or buy it off the shelf as sodium free salt
