Execution Attempt In Vein

Apparently, locating veins almost anywhere on the body is so difficult that the state of Oklahoma has spent $71,000 on death chamber improvements in an effort to improve this task. Of all the methods of capital punishment, death by lethal injection should be the simplest.

This all came about because of a botched attempt by the Sooner State hicks to end the life of convicted murderer Clayton Lockett.

    Why don't they just shoot them in the back of the head?

      Because they are trying to make something that isn't socially acceptable, acceptable!

    In the People's Republic of China they shoot criminals in the back of the head, then they bill the bullet to their families.

      I think they do that in Russia too, I remember reading about that serial killer Chikatilo. I'm pretty certain they took him back to his cell and did the same after the trial.

      In fairness, it'll get the job done quickly and on the off chance it goes wrong, there should be another 6 in the chamber to do the job properly. As opposed to fannying around trying to locate a vein for half an hour.

      Yes, we had the same crap with Sudam Hussein, dragged out a court case for months, but in the end we hanged him!

      Blatantly obvious he was going to lose a US court case, and die, so just get it over with when they found him!

      But they had to keep the UN happy, so....


      I swear if he had a third world war, the US would seek approval to bomb a strategic part of Russia, and use a tactical nuke, so to keep family's, etc injuries and deaths down to a minimum!

      Probably paint a smiley face on each warhead?

      Russia wouldn't f*** around and just launch the lot!


      War means death, not some death or death of the enemy, or some child losing a limb, but death period!


      War needs to end, no matter how clinical it is becoming!
