Capital Punishment in South Carolina up in the air
 |
The state’s latest attempt to end nearly 12 years without an execution is to pass a law shielding the identities of the company that provides the drugs and any pharmacist or prison employees involved.
A state Senate subcommittee approved the proposed shield law’s first legislative step on Thursday, voting 3-1 to advance it to the full committee.
As these overpaid wimps debate and waste the taxpayer dollars further one thing is being shoved to the side:
The consequences resulting from capital punishment offenses and more so convictions.
If you commit murder and kill another human, what consideration did that person get prior to being snuffed by some criminal?
I personally would be less concerned with humane treatment and and vastly more concerned with effective riddance of society of the criminal element so prevalent in South Carolina and the rest of the republic. After all, dead is dead. How you get there is pretty gruesome regardless but warranted if the judicial penalty is death.
I don't think murderers should have a right painless death sentences. There are practicalities to be involved and they are convicts. It lessens the deterrence. If I can't kill someone, you can't kill someone. There are consequences for actions everybody wants to just tiptoe around.
I personally feel that the required drugs should be compounded using state facilities and standard methods and the rest of the complaining world be damned. The namby pamby citizens whining "foul" should have to provide a suitable alternative in the eyes of the law.
