Its odd in the sense that it hasnt been used very recently, but either way that guy deserves to die. Whats really fucking odd is that this happened in 1985 |

Oh, Nobly Born,
Now is the moment.
Before you is mind, open and wide as space,
Simple, without center or circumference.
Now is the moment of death.

Why would it matter if good people loved him? Hes a murderer... |

White girl, you can ask her what the dick be like
And monster madness doing drive-bys on a fuckin fixie bike
Fuck it moron, snortin oxycontin, wearin cotton,
Oxymoron like buff faggots playin sissy dykes
I kind of figured. From a humane perspective it seemed like the head would cause death more quickly, but without a heart you'd lose consciousness fast enough I suppose. And yeah, it makes more sense to minimize the possibility of survival. |

From what I've heard he requested it. |

I think that lethal injection is the primary method in all the states that allow capital punishment, but convicts can request other methods in some states. It seems that in the US, the last electrocution took place in 2010, the last gassing took place in 1999 and the last hanging took place in 1996. |

From what I heard, he had a decission between the firing squad or the lethal injection. He apparently chose the firing squad, hoping that it would seem inhumane and the public would complain, resulting in them calling the whole thing off. |

Death by firing squad is along similar principles as death by stoning... Except that stoning is very slow, and everyone gets to participate. |

Ironically, death by firing squad is the most humane form of death penalty we have... |

I've been wishy washy on the death penalty since I was about eight years old. The main thing I don't like about it is that when you kill somebody, the person you kill is not necessarily your only victim. That is a problem. Still, there are some very good arguments for the death penalty. I have no sympathy whatsoever for the person being executed, but if he has a sister who is about to grieve his death, I feel very sorry for her. But like I sort of got into earlier, people pretty much never get the death penalty when family members show up at sentencing and beg the judge to let the person live. It's almost always scum that nobody cares about who get the death penalty. |

Interestingly enough, not every victim's family seeks equal retribution by having the murderer killed. From the article in the OP: |
