Idaho Becomes 5th State to Allow Firing
Squad Option as Execution Method

Original Article

Posted By: earlybird, 3/26/2023 12:02:13 PM

Idaho Gov. Brad Little signed legislation into law on Friday that added firing squads as an alternative method of execution for the state’s death-row inmates. The bill—dubbed House Bill 186—stipulates that the form of capital punishment will only be used if the state is unable to obtain the drugs needed to perform lethal injections. “I have not given up on the state’s ability to require the chemicals,” Little wrote in a transmittal letter (pdf) after signing the bill. “And, I believe the bill I signed into law last year helped expand options that would not have been available without it.”

Comments:

A believer in the death penalty, the governor will not be stopped by inability to get lethal injection chemicals. Thus the man who slaughtered the four students in their beds may get his just deserts.

Nitrogen gas chamber. Kills without any negative effects. A coworker who got into a nitrogen filled large tank, just passed out. He was pulled out, recovered fully, said he just "blinked out, no warning". Cheap, harmless in small amounts, since normal air is 78% nitrogen. No muss, no fuss, cheap and safe for staff.

Quickest and most efficient way to apply the death penalty. Eight to ten sharpshooters with high caliber, half loaded with bullets and half loaded with blanks. Four or five rounds into the heart will stop it immediately and the brain will never know what killed it.

After reading about botched lethal injection executions, a firing squad might be the more humane option.

This lethal injection business should be abandoned entirely. Too much risk of error or prolonged process. With a firing squad results are instant and certain. ...And please, no macabre games with blank rounds, Several volunteer law enforcement sharpshooters with live rounds will do the job.

FTA...'President Joe Biden, meanwhile, is the first sitting U.S. president in American history to openly and publicly oppose the death penalty and advocate its abolition.' Actually, he is opposed to death row but is openly and publicly for death roe.

This is an excellent development however, for the Daybells I prefer the Braveheart-type of execution. But even that would not atone for what they do to those children.

No oxymoron, # 9. If someone is convicted of a crime which merits the death penalty, and all reasonable appeals are exhausted, then he or she should be put to death in the most rapid and pain free way possible. After all, he or she was sentenced to death, not unnecessary torture. So, where is the oxymoron?

My version of a firing squad. Strap the perp to a chair with a hood on. A sharpshooter takes aim and pops a round off into the perp's head. No muss no fuss.

While running his minimalist presidential campaign in 2020, Joe Biden’s handlers sold him as the wise, responsible, inside-the-Beltway moderate the country desperately needed after his allegedly renegade predecessor.

President Trump’s departure from the White House brought back the Dark Ages of the deep state’s ownership of the federal government. The new regime seeks to punish his supporters as well as destroy him. The destruction of East Palestine, Ohio, epitomized the cruel nature of the vengeance of our government on those who dared want to make America great again. The village is poor and white (98%) and voted overwhelmingly for Trump. The EPA used a train wreck as an opportunity to inflict pain. The administration never acknowledged the heartbreak. Biden visited Ukraine, not Ohio.
