Question

http://www.nbc24.com/news/news_story.aspx?id=169463

What ever happened to the gas chamber or the firing squad or a good ole beheading?

Name your favorite type of execution and if you think that the inmate has a case or not.

Answer 1

Isn't this something!?!  I heard it on my local news tonight in the Cleveland, OH area.  Since he's going to be executed anyway, I don't see why they can't use a "cut down" between his toes to start his meds.  The doctors had to use that procedure on me when my veins collapsed in the hospital over 20 years ago.  Yes, for me, it meant a couple stitches when they were done, but so what for this killer!

And actually, 270 pounds on a 5'7" frame might be heavy but it's not extreme!  I cretainly don't think we Ohio tax payers should have to keep him alive on death row just because he's heavy and takes migraine medication.

Answer 2

Hang.

Answer 3

I think we should bring back hanging.

Answer 4

Wow!  He's not fighting the execution.  He doesn't want to be in pain for the whole thing.  I have truly heard it all.  Amazing that a man that killed two other human beings has a problem with feeling pain for his own death.  I agree with the nurse report.  Get him in there 15 minutes early.  And if he feels pain, good, now he will finally realize what his victims felt.
