Mengele-like logic underpins Alabama's plan to gas a man to death
The author, a former Alabama public defender, draws parallels with historical instances of dehumanization to argue that Alabama's pending execution of Kenneth Eugene Smith marks a grim turn in US history

Make no mistake, this is Trumpism at its "best". MAGAWorld is cheering.

Empty of empathy and devoid of sound reason in my view, Huffaker’s decision hinges on the fact humans have never gassed humans to death with nitrogen before; his own inspection of the mask; surreal and despicable video footage of six assistant attorney generals (AAGs) from Alabama donning the mask in the execution chamber “while also breathing and speaking;” and testimony in opposition to Yong from Dr. Joseph Antognini.

Antognini is an anesthesiologist and professor at the University of California, Davis, who, in 2022, The Intercept’s Liliana Segura wrote “is perhaps best known for lending his expertise to Donald Trump’s Justice Department during its federal execution spree.” Segura observed that after John Grant was executed by lethal injection in Oklahoma, an execution Antognini attended, and after Grant was observed to convulse violently and vomit on the gurney, Antognini nevertheless “testified Grant’s execution had gone smoothly.”

Kenneth Smith’s execution by nitrogen described as ‘most violent’ by witness
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

They could use carbon monoxide. Person would not feel distressed, would not struggle. Of course, the cruelty is the point.

Why not just administer a 25 cal. round fired into the head right behind the ear. It's quick, cheap and efficient but as you say, the cruelty.

Birds of a feather.

Trump Suggests 98% of His Supporters Would Fail Cognitive Decline Test

Gee, only 98%?

Isn't "vote" an inanimate object?
Of course, this is yet another "I am a victim" rant while placing himself in the top 2% of his flock. Absolutely brilliant strategy for a flock of brainless wonders.

The flock will just be happy that he's smarter than they.

I'm hearing the nitrogen administration was botched or sabotaged. Should have worked quickly.

Nitrous Oxide through a face mask, like they used to use at the dentist office.

Just gradually cut back on the oxygen. The person being executed will relax, enjoy it.
