Kenneth Smith ‘struggled for life’ for 22 minutes in Alabama nitrogen gas execution: Updates - eviltoast

“Kenny just began to gasp for air repeatedly and the execution took about 25 minutes total.”

Pretty compassionate way to kill a person.

Once again, the Law in the south is brutal.

    I can’t emphasize with criminals

    That says more about you than about the criminals. They are still human beings. Also, we’re supposed to be better than them.

      Disagree that rapists are human.

      Agree that the only way to make the world better is to not stoop to someone else’s level.

      Would add that protecting the wrongly accused is more important than getting rid of the guilty.
