“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.

    I think we need to have the debate. If you murder someone, do you owe your life if it can save the life of another?

      Humans LONG before you had the debate already. Pick up a history book, please! You are not a unique snowflake with concepts this earth has never before thought about. Everything that rattles around in the paint-can on your neck has been debated for generations.

        Find a major US newspaper who had addressed the debate any time in the past generation.

            If it is a public debate it’ll be in the news. Private debates are like this. They may show up somewhere on the internet but nobody cares and it isn’t represented in the public consciousness.

              I’ll amend: are you only capable of reading newspapers and online forums?

              If you can’t be bothered to read a book then you really can’t be helped.

                I read about 50 books per year, one a week. Nothing sticks out as one leading a public debate on this question. Most published books aren’t read by more than a few hundred people. Is there one you are thinking of that I missed?

      As a transplant recipient who is now listed for a second transplant.

      Nobody wants the state to murder people to increase the supply of organs.

      Stop couching your vengeance fantasies in altruism.
