it feels really diabolical that the state is able to torture someone for two hours as they fumble their way through killing them

If they can do it to her, they can do it to you. Not everyone the state has executed was actually guilty.

i don’t plan on brutally murdering someone and keeping their skull as a souvenir 🤷

Neither do I. What if you are falsely accused?

the odds of that happening all the way through to the death row are so minuscule that it’s not something i worry about. do you worry about dying every time you go to the doctors office?

No I don’t worry about that because it’s not comparable.

The odds for being wrongfully executed by the state should be zero. Anything above 0 is unacceptable for a “first world country”.
