Is it bad that "only" three dozen states use these particular drugs to kill death row inmates? Yes, in the way that you make it seem like that's not enough. I'm sure many others share this same view too. I know your stating the facts but 36 states is plently, trust me. We "Texans" lead the United States alone in number of executions a year by more than a landslide. It's nice to know were #1 in something. But it's not an honor in this category. Is it hard to prove if the lethal injection procedure is cruel and unjust? No. Your telling me that if someone couldn't move and speak, yet they were alive, that they wouldn't feel any discomfort. Just because the inmate cannot speak or move, they are still alive. Have you ever been to the dentist before for a cavity? I have. Guilty as charged. They put me under and I cannot speak or move. Now let's bring as you call it drug number three into place. Thank god the shot in the mouth is not drug number three. You wanna talk about cruel and unjust, just taking it in the gums is enough for me. But what if that were drug number three. They would administer it and my mind and body would be going through h*ll. It's like me putting a sack over my head and trying to breath. That's what my heart would be going through. It's a scary thought. That's why the justice feels it's wrong and cruel. Because it is. But if you tell me that they deserve to die, well then we might just agree on something.
