Man Executed By Firing Squad Was Conscious For Up To A Minute After Bullets Missed Target, Lawyers Say

this VC had taken part in killing this general's family i believe. was during Tet. correct response.

i start to think that a lot of the blather about cruel and unusual centers on the idea that only the gov should be allowed to kill. allowing the gov to kill is 2 edged but it's obligation (IMHO) to provide justice enters into the discussion.

Give me a choice between injection, electrocution, gas chamber, hanging, guillotine, or firing squad.
I will pick firing squad. Call me crazy. Matter of fact i want to pick the bullet.
64gr Federal fusion. 3 of them to the aorta and heart area.

Firing squad at dawn works. Or after I've had my coffee.

I don't believe in making the death penalty into some obscene, half-time show such as beheadings during soccer matches. Otherwise, the savages have won and brought us down to their level.

However, I could go medieval on the missing link that killed a pair of elderly parents visiting their son's grave at the Delaware Veterans Memorial Cemetery.
