Kenneth Smith ‘struggled for life’ for 22 minutes in nitrogen gas execution: Updates
www.independent.co.uk
Witness Reverend Jeff Hood told reporters he saw a man ‘struggling for their life’ for 22 minutes as Smith became the first US death row inmate executed by nitrogen asphyxia

“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.

    You can’t tell me that you haven’t seen people up in arms over their “gEnOciDe jOe” nonsense.

    I have, but just because ridiculous people exist doesn’t mean it’s not absurd to accuse all of Lemmy of being ridiculous.

    Seriously, I got yelled at and pointlessly downvoted for stating that I didn’t like anime- In a post that questioned popular things others enjoy that you don’t like.

    Like, for example, if some ridiculous person went into a post about an arson that killed dozens of people, and used that as an excuse to say they don’t like anime, then later pretended their post was entirely on topic and the people down voting them for making light of a terrible situation are wrong… That person is at best an idiot, but I wouldn’t equate it to “Lemmy is crass, juvenile, and can’t read the room.” That’s true of the individual, not all of Lemmy.
