with Firing Squad as Option

Original Article

South Carolina has set a date for its first death row execution since renovating its Death Chamber to accommodate inmates who choose execution by firing squad. The state’s Department of Corrections (SCDC) announced Thursday that Richard Bernard Moore, 57, is scheduled to be executed on April 29, which would be the state’s first execution in over ten years. Moore was convicted of killing James Mahoney, a convenience store clerk, in Spartenburg and has spent over 20 years on death row, the Associated Press (AP) reported. He will choose between the available execution methods of either death by electric chair or death by firing squad.

Comments:

Eye for an Eye, Tooth for a Tooth, agreed, but the victim did not get to choose which method they died! So why should their murder! The death penalty should be more states and they shouldn't wait so long to get it done. It costs the taxpayers millions to keep them there so long with all the perks they get while they wait. People should take a look at what prisoners get on our dime. It's ridiculous a lot of people can't afford that stuff for themselves. Most even have web pages. They also shouldn't be allowed conjugal visits. They're there to be punished! Why are they getting rewarded?

I like this, except for one thing. One of several rifles should fire a blank, so that no one bears any chance of guilt for the actual execution. I expect that this law will wind up being challenged for the next 3 decades or so.

Nice to have options! I’d like to to see the menu of choices, I’m sure they have the pros and cons of each method listed on a cartoon chart. This is Monty Python territory.

Like the guard who throws the switch on the electric chair, the guards firing the guns will have to live with their actions for the rest of their lives. I couldn't do it.

You know when you fire a blank, #1. There's a difference in kick. Besides, it wouldn't be too hard to find 6 "volunteers" who are experts in firearms to take part in this adventure. Being an executioner has to fall on someone's shoulders, so why not 6 or more? My problem with this is that the firing squad used to be for executing those of more "noble" character, like military men, not for thugs and vile criminals. The rope was reserved for murderers and horse thieves.

#1 standard for civil executions IS at least one rifle does have a blank. If I remember right military is only one has a loaded bullet.

I hope this catches on, especially now that electricity is becoming more expensive and will be in heavy demand to run all of our cars. Next we have to work on putting these animals away on a timely basis and not keeping them in the zoo for twenty years before we make up our minds.

Sorry, #1, but a blank in a rifle is easily distinguished by the shooter from a live round by the recoil. A blank has essentially zero recoil, and any real rifle cartridge has significant recoil. Perhaps if the shooters had never fired a gun before they might be fooled, but no experienced shooter (which is what you want on the squad) would be fooled. Now everyone could CLAIM that "I had a blank" if they were uncomfortable with the deal, and that may assuage some consciences, but nobody would be actually unable to tell if they fired a live round versus a blank. Really obvious.

#1 and #7: About the only state that allowed for execution by firing squad was Utah. Their last execution was Gary Gilmore in 1977. They used several rifles, all of them pre-sighted and bolted to a bench. One rifle was loaded with a blank cartridge; the weight of the bench diminished the perception of recoil. There was one civilian on the firing squad, chosen by a lottery from names of volunteers. About 25,000 Utah residents volunteered. If my state ever allowed civilian volunteers for a firing squad execution (fat chance, given the leftist squishes who moved here and elected a Democrat governor), I’d put my name in. I view it as similar to jury duty...

If they ever start prosecuting for treason, sign me up for firing squad detail. Yes, I know it will be a full time job, but I'll do it as long as they meet my salary demands: $1/year.

Friday, during an appearance on FNC’s “Hannity,” Sen.

A Metairie man rigged a flashbang to deter people from breaking into his truck, and the incident was caught on video. The man who rigged the flash bang said he understands this wasn’t the best way to go about deterring car burglaries, but was frustrated with how often his truck was broken into it. He rigged a flash-bang inside his truck that would trigger if someone broke in. Surveillance shows that the flashbang went off while someone broke into his truck in New Orleans. The video shows a man breaking the glass of his truck and crawl inside. Shortly after the person entered the truck a flash can be seen.

Donald Trump Just Made an Absolutely Head-Scratching Endorsement 30 replies

Donald Trump held a rally in North Carolina on Saturday night, but it wasn’t the normal theatrics and hilarity that the former president delivers that made the biggest impression. Rather, it was an endorsement that seems to have come out of nowhere, and I’ll go so far as to say it may be his worst ever (yes, worse than Morgan Ortega) — at least as a Republican politician. Honestly, I know some people take umbrage with anyone ever questioning Trump’s decision-making, but this is truly a head-scratching moment. I’m not sure offering endorsements to people based on them being on TV for a long time is the best strategy.

In a recent column, Williamson claims that what he calls “sensible conservatives” twenty years ago or so “could take a realistic, instrumental view of the GOP and find it reasonably useful for our ends.” But not today. Not when the Republican Party consists of “vulgar” populists and “infantile” nationalists who loathe free trade, free speech, the U.S. military, and libertarians.

Take the jab or the boy gets it. That’s essentially the message the Cleveland Clinic is sending to the parents of 9-year-old Tanner Donaldson, who will soon need a kidney transplant. He was born with a rare birth defect, posterior urethral valves (PUV), a condition that caused irreversible kidney damage in utero and resulted in stage 4 chronic kidney disease (CKD). Dane Donaldson, Tanner’s father, told PJ Media that his son’s kidney function is currently between 15-20%, but his numbers have been ticking up lately, so they feel he is nearing the time when a transplant will be necessary. They’ve known since birth that Tanner would eventually need the transplant

Saturday, the world found out that British Prime Minister Boris Johnson was in Ukraine. Making a surprise visit to Ukraine’s capital, Prime Minister Boris Johnson of Britain on Saturday promised more military equipment and missiles to Ukraine, underscoring his country’s role as Europe’s most enthusiastic supporter of the Ukrainian president, Volodymyr Zelensky. Britain will provide 120 armored vehicles as well as new anti-ship missile systems to the Ukrainian military, Downing Street said in a statement issued to coincide with the prime minister’s meeting with Mr. Zelensky. That is in addition to £100 million, or about $130 million, worth of military equipment that Mr. Johnson pledged to Ukraine on Friday.

Last week Cook Political Report posted an analysis of the House midterm election which said “Both sides see the possibility of a Red Tsunami in 2022.” But the rest of the Cook piece argued that because of redistricting changes 2022 can’t possibly equal a tsunami like the one in 1994 when Republicans won 54 seats. There are simply not as many competitive seats in the House as there used to be. So the author ultimately predicted a more modest wave: Every metric we use to analyze the political environment — the president’s approval rating, the mood of the electorate, the enthusiasm gap — all point to huge gains
