Texas executes serial killer
 
reading this will make you sick to your stomach. the epitome of evil.

The last thing on my mind is whether the drug they used to kill him was humane. Very clearly it was humane, he died falling asleep just as intended.

I kind of wonder about the lawyer defending this guy. The lawyer was almost certainly working pro bono, or paid by a foundation/charity. And they didn't have any argument about innocence or guilt, just wanted to stop the execution. Presumably through any method possible.

Of all the hard-luck cases in the world where someone needs free help from a lawyer--this one is it?

"But I'm trying to movie society towards a more humane system where we don't execute persons."

I kind of think execution is pretty darn humane for someone like that. And almost certainly someone like him is a risk to kill again, whether inside prison or out.

The juxtaposition between your posts and George Orwell in the sig is obscene. George Orwell would like to punch you if he were with us.
