would bring out the masses. Some death-row inmate from the great
state of Oklahoma was scheduled to be put to death yesterday when a
cocktail of lethal injections went wrong and the guy, Clayton Lockett,
died of a massive heart attack 40 minutes later. The AP reported
that he was in immense pain, crying out that something was wrong.
I know we will now get people who will say that this is cruel but
wonder what the difference really is. You are going to kill him
anyway, the fact that he suffered for forty minutes seems a minor
sidebar in the grand scheme of things. If you believe in the Death
Penalty, there is just no way that this is a thing but an unfortunate
incident especially knowing that Lockett was meeting his maker because
he raped and killed an 11 month old girl. As a father of two, I can't
really say that I feel that much sympathy. There is no fate bad
enough for some.

How do you know the 11 month old wasn't asking for it?
The difference between a 40 minute death and a 4 second death is called torture.
If you're okay with that, you can never make another negative comment about North Korea ever again.
