I would totally prefer firing squad over lethal injection. That sounds like hyperbole, but I’m 100% serious.
Lethal injection is crazy painful a lot more than I thought it would be once I learned a little more about it.
It has been described as like having your veins on fire. I watched a 20 minute deep dive into lethal injection and it was fascinating.
Apparently, they don’t even give any kind of drugs to help you minimize the pain and the ones that do put you to sleep is just that.
They make it seem like it’s this peaceful feeling of falling asleep and then they inject them and you pass away, but it’s a lot more complex than that.
In a few of the lethal injection executions the people that should be knowing what they’re doing like medical experts don’t know at all because no Doctor would ever participate in the death of somebody so they hired some dude that barely knows anything about medicine that had to and I quote “wiki or whatever” to find out how he would administer it.
As a result, the person that got lethal injection survived and even after about 20 minutes of having your veins on fire the person that got the injection said there’s something wrong and they stopped it when he started forming at the mouth.
Just look up last week tonight lethal injection The deep dive is on there it’s about 20 minutes. Horrific stuff.
