Nino, Alito and Thomas scored prized seats for the next execution of a blah in Oklahoma in Dick Cheney's luxury box and they'll be damned if they're going to miss it over some pansy concerns about pain...writhing and vomiting is what they want to see!

Oh yes... those ISIS folks, they're the bad ones... the nasty guys who revel in the killing of prisoners, and insist on imposing their religion on others, right?

And the difference is...?

Right back atcha, Nino, with a repeated brushing movement of the fingers under the chin... followed by a striking of the inside of one elbow with the opposite hand causing the struck arm to fly upwards...then a biting of the thumb...finishing with a biting of the side of the hand in your general direction, you fucking fuck.

I dont believe in Hell. But if I did, there'd be an Oklahoma style gurney stuck on infinite repeat waiting there for these assholes.

Funnily enough, many people would call my sister-in-law a Cafeteria Catholic too, and she disagrees w/ Scalia on all of those cases (she's pro-choice, pro-contraception, pro-LGBT-rights, anti-death-penalty); in fact, she and my brother met at an Obama fundraiser! :-)

Has anyone contacted Pope Frankie about getting Scalia, Alitio, Thomas, Kennedy, and Roberts excommunicated? I seem to remember that the death penalty is part of that "pro-life" thing the American Catholic Church is always nattering on about. The environment, also, too, and since mercury poisoning is A-OK by them, that's also anti-life..

Hey you know you kill the wrong guy a couple of times, or maybe 39 times, so what they wouldn't have been charged if they weren't guilty of something. Ah Conservative logic, they love it till it works against them. https://en.wikipedia.org/wi...

And they can't get money from being unable to get a job, because of the permanent stigma of breaking the law, after serving their time.

Or his leg vein blood clot (a real thing).

If state governments were actually serious about finding a way of executing people in a quick and humane way, they would be using guillotines, which are damn near foolproof. But I suppose the severed heads and pools of blood are bad PR for the death penalty.
