Gods & Monsters























Bradley, Bradley Manning, is that you?

This is a bad idea.
Ohio will be the first state with a one-drug injection process using pentobarbital, a sedative used during heart surgery. But one death penalty expert said Ohio is turning to an unproven execution method that she likened to an experiment.
Jesus H. Cthulhu on a pike, what do you think the likes of Guantanamo are for? What happens if, instead of hall of justice-ing these minimum-security scumbags, said scumbags are chemically Frankensteined into some kind of über killing machine whose ever-growing pile of corpses doesn't end with those gainfully employed in lucrative field of corrections?

When your wife & kids are raped, torn & eaten, don't come crying to me.

Damn, Canada's looking better and better.

Should we see if we can get past the Homeland Security at Reserve Square and make a run for the non-Taco Bell border?

Randal Graves said...

No DHS SUV sightings for nearly two years there, yep, they've unquestionably set up some black ops monitoring station gig underneath the grocery store.

MRMacrum said...

Death Penalty Expert? Looks like this might be a profession with some growth potential.

There must be loads of learning needed to humanely kill a man.

Ethan said...

I like that the change was prompted by objections from the pharmaceutical company, like, wow.

Ubermilf said...

You would think that living in the same state as you would be punishment enough.

La Belette Rouge said...

I think it is time for you to move to California. We had snow last month. And we have a democrat governor now. Come on, come to the dark side.

Anonymous said...

Clearly, they should NOT be given pentobarbitol. Rather, they should be given charge over Charter Schools of grades K-4, which Uncle Sam should fund completely, with 5-Star Accommodation Campuses. Someone's got to train our kids to be more sociopathic than presently.

Randal Graves said...

mrmacrum, are you saying you *didn't* get your BA in Death Penalty Studies with a minor in Lethal Injection?

ethan, I'm sure their objection was on ethical grounds & not because of any mamby pamby eye-talian objections.

übermilf, which is why I thank Cthulhu every night that you'll never set foot over the border.

LBR, do you guys pass out free weed?

charles, damn straight. How can we otherwise win the future?

Doesn't R.G. live in Cleveland, which is practically in teh same place as Toledo, which is virtually Michigan?

Ubermilf said...

At least your favorite band is getting back together. That outta cheer you up.

Demeur said...

Two thoughts come to mind. What our animal drugs aren't good enough for you? Oh I forgot they're not registered for human consumption and don't forget the alcohol wipe first.

I say we give the condemned his/her own choice with alcohol and any other preferred drug. Easily accomplished with a trip to the nearest frat house.

Life As I Know It Now said...

All joking aside, this death penalty business is a freaking travesty. The state should not be in the business of killing anybody ever.

Laura said...

Mental note... "Stay out of Ohio if I need heart surgery"...
Come to Canada!!

((Hugs))
Laura

Randal Graves said...

if, Michigan? Hey you, let's fight!
"Them's fightin' words!"

übermilf, your comment's about as full of truth as me saying you're a decent, kindhearted person.

demeur, I was going to suggest we make them pages on Capitol Hill, but that's even more cruel than lethal injection.

liberality, we kill them inside so we don't have to kill them outside. This isn't hard, hippie.

Randal Graves said...

laura, now I *know* you guys have weed.

Susan Tiner said...

The weed isn't free, but you can grow some yourself.

The damsel in distress in that photo is awfully cute.

Tom Harper said...

"an unproven execution method" -- what's the unproven part? The perp might not die?

MRMacrum: Sorry but those Death Penalty Expert jobs have been outsourced. You have to phone the call center in Bangalore and the operator will walk you through each step for carrying out the execution yourself.

okjimm said...

Listening to Sarah Palin almost kills me.... maybe Ohio should look into getting some tapes..... just sayin

Ricky Shambles said...

Oh, Oh, Oh why-o - wait, shit, I still live in Ohio.

Didn't they see Heathers (also in Ohio)? A coffee cup of Drano after a last meal of Corn Nuts will take care of the problem easily.

As for Canada, if those damned conservatives were right on ONE thing, couldn't it be Global Cooling? With a snowmobile, that's 2-3 hours to real freedom, real socialized medicine, Tim Horton's, and The Beer Store.

Chef Cthulhu said...

Fucking pussies. This totally undermines the hella-fuckin-balls-to-the-wall-awesomeness of the death penalty.

Perhaps if they had been paying attention to the Supreme Court they would figure this shit out.

susan said...

What happened? Did the hamster who powered their electric chair die on his wheel?

'Death penalty blockheads', she mutters on her way to the Beer Store.

Commander Zaius said...

...what do you think the likes of Guantanamo...

I guess that eliminates the sea-side, Club Med resort option, dammit.

As for the death penality, my grandfather would have said something about a twenty-foot length of rope as being way cheaper, but he was old school.

Randal Graves said...

susan t, and break the law? I believe the DEA needs a phone call.

tom, we can't have non-death, you hippie.

okjimm, like duct tape to protect us from a Middle Eastern bioweapons attack which is sure to occur on or about December 21, 2012?

ricky, why nab a snowmobile when you can sport giant, cartoony snowshoes? Very stylish.

chef, strict constructionisms will roll.

susan, ah, death, my one weakness, my Achilles heel if you will.
