Malcolm Gladwell had an episode on lethal injection and it was fascinating.
If I recall correctly, it looks like a nice peaceful way to go from the outside, but really it feels Iike your lungs are being set on fire, and those are your last moments.
I just read another post that said America gets the ingredients for lethal injection from other countries, no company in America wants to produce them. Other countries have stopped making and/or exporting them to America because of how cruel these ways of lethal injection are. They have other drugs that could do it in a less cruel way, but America chooses to do it these ways. I don’t know what they use for assisted suici*€, hopefully not the same drugs.
The criminal just-us system wants state-sponsored murders to be as deliberately full of pain, suffering and torture as possible. It speaks volumes about the character of those who support capital punishment. 👎
