Poor Poor rapist/murder took a whole 24 minutes to die ... awwwww isn't that just so sad that he may have possibly suffered for a few minutes??? Not so much, I say.
Everyone has their own opinion on the death penalty. That's not really what I'm here to write about today. Obviously, in this situation it's not up for debate as this man was already sentenced to death. So that's not my issue. I'm not even particularly upset about this particular man or truthfully the reactions of his death. What upsets me is these brutal killers, people that have murdered innocent human beings in horrid ways, torturing them until life left their bodies. Sometimes they'd torture them for hours, days, weeks ... who knows, but these people took lives and their punishment was to have their life taken from them. It dumbfounds me that they have to be healthy to die anyway, but when something like this happens (see article-> Dennis McGuire Takes 24 Minutes to Die), why is it such a big deal? We've already wasted hundreds of thousands of dollars on these brutal killers in courts, appeals and keeping them healthy in prisons so we can kill them, sometimes years and years after they had been sentenced to death. So they suffer a little? SO WHAT??? Look at what these people have done to, not only their victims, but the victims families and their own families and all of the cops and legal people involved. Not to even mention all of us that read about things like this and have attached emotions involved. It's a waste. What's a waste, you ask. It's a waste that they're going to spend so much more money, time, emotion, effort and energy now suing people and cities and states, etc. because of this man's "painful" death. Was it painful? Well, only he can truly tell you that ... and he's dead. Maybe the man just had a seizure as he was dying, who knows?
Anyway, I saw that on my Facebook and it seemed like a good thing to start my blog off with LOL - yeah, really good, huh? Well, it is what it is. Leave it to me, to start off with a doozy!
