At any rate, it has to be done humanely. He was already judged by his peers for the death penalty. Just because he was a monster to his victims, as a civilized society we cannot stoop to his level and impose the death penalty like worse than animals.

There will be justice.
I would totally agree with that, whatever doesn't happen in a civilized setting as it should -death penalty- then will happen in a barbaric social hierarchy [state penatentary] -raped, stabbed, beat to hell...-

Though I can't possibly imagine what the tab on his last meal will be...

Surely if large animals such as Derby horses and zoo creatures can be euthanized humanely, some concoction can be administered to this overweight murderer.

They should criminalize obesity itself, that would solve so many of America's problems.

WOW! Such originality is spawned only from a leader Panterteke! Why, you should run for president, right there along Paris Hilton...

But I actually can see where the previous statement was going, how hard is it to find a drug that will be noxious enough to kill someone is not the question, The question is where do you find a drug or substance that can 'put down' a human being without it being cruel or unusual ie. painful in any way, which is where the problem lies
It wouldn't be hard to find a chemical or venom that could kill him, even if almost instantly, it is considered cruel though for his last moments [even if only a few seconds] to be in excruciating pain...

What we need is Jim Jones to come back from the grave and do a little recruiting... koolaid anyone?

LOL. Or rather they could fcuk up on a lap band or bariatric surgery--it's probably cheaper than to give him a lethal injection...

Haha, I would.. But I have too many questionable pics floating around on Facebook to ever be considered for office.

We should take him to a Golden Corral and see how long it takes him to eat himself to death.

The death penalty does make me kind of nervous, but I don't think that most of the complaints about it being cruel and unusual make much sense culturally and historically.

But I do wonder, are we kidding ourselves about putting animals "to sleep" being relatively painless or could lethal injection be done a whole lot more easily with other drugs.

How about deliberate morphine OD?

A moot point at this stage, but I hadn't read his stats before, 5'7" and 267# is certainly heavy but doesn't seem "morbidly obese" to me so now I'm surprised at how far that lame argument actually went. I was picturing someone along the lines of those guys that take up the whole bed and have to wear sheets because nothing even fits them from the "Big & Tall" shops anymore. This guy's just bulky, he won't have any problems meeting his maker and the judgment he's been due for 22 years...

Since I do this about everytime I work (lethal injection that is) I would use a combination of propofol and then beuthanasia (pentobarbital)-he would be dead in about 20 seconds or sooner. It isn't that hard. I don't understand why they have to use so many injections for executions. If you really are worried about him feeling pain then give a combination of valium and fentanyl-very cheap drugs and they are very good pain controllers/induction agents.
I think veterinarians in general see lethal injection very differently. Maybe they should employ us to do the job. I wouldn't have a problem with it.

1. Barring a mircale from God, he will die today and

2. Everytime I read some of these comments I hear Robin Harris', "Gotta Go, Gotta Go." in my head.
