Since pharmaceutical companies are refusing to sell their drugs for purposes of death, this case isn't likely to make a difference regarding lethal injections. Nor will the decision have any impact on states that have capital punishment on their sentencing menu.

In all likelihood, when executions carried out by firing squad, hanging and electrocution become the norm, public opinion will change. Much messier than putting someone to sleep.

Yo.

You can't trust abolitionists, Jolly. Those hoods will steal, lie and cheat to get what they want. They will force Christians to pay full wages for work. They will steal your execution drugs and then turn around and say, look you can't execute that man, you don't have the proper drugs. They are slippery dudes who operate in the dead of night. They are common thieves. The country was better off before they came along.

Thanks, Richard.

I'm not saying "abolitionist" is a definite dog whistle but in the context of our criminal justice system, and what appears to be less fair treatment of blacks than whites, the term is way off base when used by a justice.

Great rant.

Great rant.

This all reminds me of the Dred Scott Decision and the opinion signed by Taney where he goes on and on about how all Negroes are monkeys.

In reply to If I understand Alito's

Thanks, rmrd. Guerilla fighters are bent on death and destruction, innocents be damned, the overarching existing order must fall. Our overarching order at best is at fifty percent in favor of the death penalty.

I think the description better fits those who doing the executing than those who are attempting to eliminate further death. However, the term might be in its best context in Oklahoma and Texas who enjoy the largest practice of execution. Still, how did these Danish guerillas get visas and aren't their fake Southern accents a dead giveaway? The French Resistance at least employed good German language speakers.

If I understand Alito's position , it is Ok to save the life of a fetus by pressuring physicians, but it is Guerilla warfare to pressure drug companies to save the life of an adult. Interesting.
