Kenneth Smith’s nitrogen execution called ‘troubling’ by White House: Updates
www.independent.co.uk
Witness Reverend Jeff Hood told reporters he saw a man ‘struggling for their life’ for 22 minutes as Smith became the first US death row inmate executed by nitrogen asphyxia

“Kenny just began to gasp for air repeatedly and the execution took about 25 minutes total.”

Pretty compassionate way to kill a person.

Once again, the Law in the south is brutal.

        Seems Lemmy also loves coming to conclusions on people they know nothing about.

        So how is what I said about you being outraged different from what you said about “Lemmy” being outraged?

          Because I’m showing no indications of actually being outraged, and Lemmy does tens of thousands of times daily.

          That’s how.

            I’d be surprised none of them reported my comment simply because they disagree with it

            You sound pretty outraged.

              I can assure you, you’re reading into it wrong. Reread it again- and imagine it coming from someone that doesn’t give a shit whether or not it happens- but that they meant what they said about not being surprised- because I guarantee that it’s been reported.

              Now I’m going to add some smiley emojis to emphasize the point as that’s apparently how people understand things now.

              😆😆😆😆😂😂😂😂😂😂😁😆😆😀

                How can you tell someone doesn’t give a shit?

                They write two paragraphs and conclude with an excessively long string of emojis, apparently.

                  lol! Let me get this straight here:

                  So, if I say I don’t give a shit about something, and some random troll says I do- they’re right about it simply because I offered an explanation?

                  I think psychotherapy found its next shooting star! I mean… wow… You get to tell people what they’re thinking regardless of what they’re actually thinking! You should write a book:

                    You get to tell people what they’re thinking regardless of what they’re actually thinking!

                    And how is that different from your original comment?
