Ready. Aim. Firing Squads!
With European manufacturers boycotting the sale of the drugs normally used to painlessly execute prisoners in the United States, some politicians are panicking. Now they are looking for alternative methods to kill. At least two states … are now stating that they would be open to executing the prisoners via the good old firing squad method…”
That’s right, Missouri and Wyoming figure what was fine in Spaghetti Westerns, will be dandy in the Wild West of 2014. Missouri state Rep. Rick Brattin (R), who is currently in no danger of landing on death row, claims that if he were to be executed then he would prefer a firing squad thank you very much.
“A lot of folks may picture the 1850s and everyone lining up to shoot, but the reality is that people suffer with every type of death. This is no less humane than lethal injection. If I had my choice, I would take the firing squad over lethal injection”
