So this last week Mr. Angel Diaz, because of a deteriorated liver needed a second dose of deadly chemicals before his lethal injection would finally "take." The poor soul somehow survived 24 minutes after the first dosage, and at some point seemed to "grimmace."

Of course that means the New York Times had to produce this little piece of activism arguing against the cruelty of such treatment. 17 paragraphs of "oh how terrible it is that this man took 24 minutes to die."

Of course it had been a heck of a lot longer than that.

Diaz exhausted every appeal, including two different appeals to the U.S. Supreme Court and in the process wasted 27 years of the tax-payers money living out his days on their dime.

He lived 27 years longer than he should have been allowed to, so color me so not impressed that the unlucky chap laid on the table for 24 minutes - grimmacing. Oh no... NOT GRIMMACING.

Because of his little facial expression - both Florida and California have now suspended all lethal injections, which of course now means that other inhumane organisms like Diaz will now live even LONGER on the taxpayer dime.

I mean we can't have those jerks grimmacing now can we.

I wonder how long Joseph Nagy grimmaced in 1979. Nagy wasn't a convicted murderer, he was Diaz's victim. And while he lay dying at Diaz's feet I wonder if there was a grimmace upon Nagy's face and exactly how many minutes it took for him to die.

And perhaps most importantly was Diaz so compassionate as to offer him a second dose of lethal drugs to quietly ease his victim's experience of entering into the forever after?

Pardon me if I feel NOTHING, for Mr. Diaz's final minutes. And pardon me secondly for thinking the states of California and Florida are excercising abject stupidity for suspending the act of justice to the most heinous people among us.

You said it perfectly.
Wondering, ever since the suspension of most death penalties back in what, 1963?, the rate of murder has skyrocketted.

I wonder how many have needlessly died by MURDER, because these dingbat Dim bureaucrats were more worried about murderers' sufferings, than they were of the murder victims.

Soon they'll have a statue erected to Jeffrey Dohmer to compete with that new California $500,000 statue of that Aztec god, you know ,the one set up in that city park where Nativity scenes are not allowed --- oops, better not finish THAT thought!

Seems to me that Justice would demand these murderers die a WORSE death than their victims, not a pinprick while they pretend they are about to take a nap.

Silly politicians
Disgusting that those who murder would not be put out of their and our misery. Someone ought to tell those planning to run for president that those on death row can't vote. So do us all a favor and execute them like they executed their victims.

Maybe a French response...
Perhaps the guillotine should make a comeback. After all, the Jihadists do it, and if all cultures are equivalent, and Islamofascists are to be "respected," why not emulate their methdos and do it right? It's certain less cruel and unusual than what most of these animals have done to their victims.
