Tonight at 6pm. US Supreme Court denied ruling on it. Convict already survived a lethal injection attempt in 2022 because they couldn’t get a vein.
Wish it were televised. Could get ugly.

Wouldn't a firing squad or hanging work?

We should bring back getting stoned to death. They do it in the Middle East and it doesn’t sound too bad. I wonder if they like use dabs or how it works

How the frick does that make sense?

"oops, we missed the vein.. this one is contaminated, and dont have any more needles" The mother fricker is about to be put to death, coulda tried a different vein, same needle.

Soft-point .308 is so much cheaper and very little chance of needing a second attempt.

Wtf. How do they not find a vein on that skinny fricker? I’m a hard stick according to the nurses, but we always get there. Once tried both arms to no avail, and finally got me in the hand.

Absolutely not... What I don't understand is how you don't just make it happen? like figure it out. try more than once. I have a hard time believing there was no way to keep trying until hes dead?

I imagine some kind of lawyer crap or something. Can get a vein in the neck easily and it's fairly painless.

not a bad way to go from what I've read. I think you just go to sleep and don't wake up.

They should have used liquid nitrogen instead. Just bind his hands and legs, and drop him into a big vat full. Instant popsicle.

That would probably be expensive though.

Years ago I stuck my head inside a heat exchanger that was under nitrogen blanketing so that I could look for a leak. After two breaths I dropped to the ground while the maintenance guy and operator laughed their asses off at the stupid young engineer.

There are no symptoms with nitrogen hypoxia, you just pass out. A much better way to go than most.

I think they should let you choose the method amongst:

Deep Sea Diving without equipment
Catapulted into skyscraper
Devoured by 1,000 chihuahuas
Wear the sign from Die Hard 3 in South Chicago
