        This is why they should just take my advice and go back to the long drop. Simple, cheap, efficient, and relatively humane.

        Putting in a central line isn't a gruesome procedure. Hundreds of thousands of people in the US have them.

        Perhaps—minus context. But if administered in a drawn-out, ham-fisted attempt to stage a last minute double execution, it becomes depraved.

        Do you understand context? Be it an IV or a sword it's not the object but its use in the state sanctioned death of a person in custody.

        As a general rule, I'm opposed to execution—last minute execution of repentant persons, even more so. As political theater, ABSOLUTELY.

        Nothing disingenuous about it. The timing compounds the questionable action it rockets it into realm of being depraved as stated.

        People like the death penalty 4 same reason as shows like Maury Povich. 2 have someone 2 look down on & condemn as worse than themselves.

        There are far better and humane methods certainly. Consequence of attempts to sanitize execution.

        Jugular IVs are apparently nothing unusual, so there is a rush to judgment here I think.
