Comments on: Supreme Court Decision Could Affect Flathead Murderer
Let’s be civil.
The Flathead Beacon encourages vigorous discussion and lively debate, but we will delete comments that attack other readers, make accusations we can’t verify, stray too far off topic, criticize local businesses (call them if you have a problem), convict someone of a crime, use profanity or are simply judged to be in bad taste. We don’t always have someone moderating comments, so we ask for your help: If you see a comment that violates these ground rules, or you simply deem it offensive, please e-mail webmaster [at] flatheadbeacon.com.

The views expressed in the comments section do not reflect those of the Beacon.

Inhumane?

First we give them an anesthetic to numb them throughout, then we give them a drug that essentially paralizes them, all the while they’re completely numb, then we give them a drug that stops the heart. 

Seems like a pretty “nice” way to go if you consider how their victims went…

Considering what these animals had done to get on death row, this is way too humane for them.  All I have to say to the following statement in the article is .. GOOD!  “The anesthetic often doesn’t work or is ineffective and prisoners die painful deaths, fully conscious of what’s happening.”

I think murder is cruel and unusual punishment. The punishment (lethal injection) does not come close to fitting the crime.
