Because protecting your family starts with protecting what you treasure.
Kenneth Eugene Smith was executed via nitrogen anoxia, nitrogen hypoxia.
It was a vile and horrific and horrible...
And disgusting form of death and state-sponsored murder.
22 minutes plus to have him gasp and lurch in these agonal paroxysms, forever freaking out the witnesses who by law had to observe this.
Ladies and gentlemen, it is about time.
That we bring back and consider the guillotine.
I am not going to argue whether the death penalty makes sense, whether it's barbaric, whether it demeans us, whether we as a people somehow.
I'm not interested in that.
What I am interested in saying and what I am interested in bringing to your attention is that if you're going to do something effectively, And if you want to do something which is, quote, humane, the thing to do is to bring back the guillotine using hydraulics that will force and slam and
cause the blade to be delivered in such a way, In such a delivery that is so swift and certain and fast and breathtakingly efficient in immediately severing the head of the condemned to be dropped into
a basket or some type of container that's lined with some type of Plastic or something to cover, to handle the extraneous blood that one could imagine one would see.
Maybe not at first, but later on.
It would therefore allow the drapes to then be immediately shut so that before blood gushes, once the heart still pumps and pounds, the last Gushes and gushers of blood through the various carotids.
It's done.
It's finished.
It's through.
It's done.
Why don't we do this?
And the reason why is, believe it or not, we don't want to do anything to traumatize the witnesses.
Did you know that?
Seeing this nitrogen anoxia, but that's not traumatic.
I don't understand why that's considered okay.
When you take your dog, your beloved pooch, your family pooch, who is old and at the end of his or her ropes, you take the dog to the vet.
They are able to deliver a kind of a bolus, a little delivery of some barbiturate or something that causes the doggy to just close its eyes.
There's no convulsion.
Oftentimes people hold the dog.
It is a fate.
It is a procedure that is in and of itself beyond horrific.
You feel almost like you're like...
Part and parcel of this.
But irrespective, you are involved in this system.
And you are allowed to do this.
So why don't we do that?
Not hold them, but why don't we just take...
We don't need special chemicals.
Cocktails of pencuromium bromide and these devices, these chemicals to stop the heart and stop the breathing and curare?
No!
Just blast them.
And the reason why, believe it or not, is sometimes there might be some froth or some type of spittle or sputum or foam or something that may result in the person looking somewhat ghastly.
Out of his misery, completely.
So no, no, they go for these other ridiculous, needlessly complicated forms of dispatch involving chemicals that are oftentimes kept from the...
And by the way, I happen to be opposed to the death penalty itself, for reasons I'll talk about later on.
But if you're going to do it, I mean, if that's what you're going to do, I mean, it makes the most sense to do it in a way that is the most sensible, and the most immediate, and I think the most, dare I say, a little dramatic,
because one of the reasons, one of the things I think you want, It's for the whole process to be a tad, well, a tad dramatic to the point where it acts as a bit of a deterrent.
Where it acts as a deterrent.
It makes people think like, ooh.
Because nobody ever says, well, I got nothing to worry about.
The death penalty will be quick and fleet.
No, no, no, no.
People will normally find it.
But the guillotine?
To walk in and see this device, to see these huge hydraulic, just think about these hydraulic springs that bring this surgical blade down so fast, so quickly, so rapidly.
Years ago, there was that one case where someone who was sentenced Pledge that he or she would blink, you know, yes, if he was still awake.
And there is a time, there is this consciousness before the blood seeps where the body, where there is a certain degree of awareness.
I don't know how long.
But there is this point where this head is aware.
Is aware.
How interesting.
So all I'm saying is, do you agree with me?
I'd love your thoughts and comments.
Do you believe?
Do you agree?
Do you feel that the guillotine should make its return?
