Lethal Injection: Cruel & Unusual Punishment


I AM ANGRY BEYOND BELIEF!


"You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. You have the right to be speak to an attorney, and to have an attorney present during any questioning. If you cannot afford a lawyer, one will be provided for you at government expense."


Well, now they will have to add something more. Upon being found GUILTY of MURDER in any degree, they will have more rights that have to be read to them:

The right to not be executed unless it's humane.

Once humane, lethal injection now under fire

Supreme Court to hear arguments on if method causes excruciating pain

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - Lethal injection was supposed to be the humane, enlightened way to execute inmates and avoid the pain and the gruesome spectacle of firing squads, the electric chair and the noose.

But now it, too, is under legal attack as cruel and unusual, with the U.S. Supreme Court agreeing this week to hear arguments that lethal injection can cause excruciating pain.

Some supporters of the procedure say the notion that inmates suffer is unproven. And they argue that there is nothing wrong with lethal injection itself; instead, they say, the problem is inadequately trained executioners.



Once humane? ? ? Oh that media prejudice . . Don't you love it? The implication is that the politically correct crowd supported Capital Punishment before. But now that they consider it inhumane, they're against it. Yeah, like that's true.

Who wants humane for the people (male and female) who abuse, torture and murder others? How humane is it to drown your five children? How humane is it to rape, molest and then hang a 6 year old little girl?

Exodus 20:13 Thou shalt not kill.

Four words so blindly ignored and twisted to teach the wrong meaning. And the excuses: (1) That's the Old Testament and doesn't apply now. Or ultimately (2) there is no God.

This makes me want to pound the table with my fists and scream. All those politically correct idiots will have blood on their hands when they come before the Lord.
