Drudge Retort: Red Meat for Yellow Dogs
Friday, September 18, 2009

Convicted killer Romell Broom is the first in U.S. history to be scheduled to die by lethal injection, and then to have his execution postponed because authorities were unable to find a suitable vein in which to inject the three-drug cocktail that was meant to kill him. Broom's lawyers filed papers in state and federal court today, contending that Ohio shouldn't have a second chance to subject Broom to lethal injection after the two-hour, 18-attempt ordeal.

Admin's note: Participants in the discussion of this weblog entry should note the site's moderation policy.

It makes sense only to lawyers. Whether capital punishment should be permitted is an honest topic for debate. However, I'd have thought the very fact there is a warrant for your death would cause "mental anguish", never mind the needle.

Well the American taxpayer has been feeding, clothing and housing Broom for 25 years, nearly twice the lifespan of the kid whose fate he selfishly and gruesomely sealed.

If that seems a worthy cause so be it.

The halt to the execution had nothing to do with pain. It was because they couldn't find a vein in two hours of trying.

Now, because Ohio is so bad at executing people, it has become a new constitutional case over whether the situation is cruel and unusual punishment.

Thank G-d.

Bring out old sparky.

Capital punishment is wrong....put him in jail and throw away the key, make him wear pink panties, teach him how to plant flowers...don't kill. It is God's commandment afterall.

"Bring out old sparky."

Fuck that.

Stab the needle in his eye and push it into his brain.

The usual pants-pissing cowards are here perpetuating the stereotype that the only thing Republican are for is hate. The most anti-Jesus group in this planet is the Republican party and their 'base', as evidenced here.

Sorry for the interruption, please continue your circle jerk, losers.

"Capital punishment is wrong....put him in jail and throw away the key, make him wear pink panties, teach him how to plant flowers...don't kill. It is God's commandment afterall."

So obviously Jesus's view but strangely not that of many Christians.

Danni.

According to the Bible not all killing, the taking of a life, is murder. Murder is the unlawfully taking of human life. The command not to murder applies to human beings, not to killing animals or plant life for food. God gave animals to mankind for his use (Genesis 1:26-30; 9:1-4). But, this does not mean that humans have the right mistreat animals and the environment (Genesis 2:15; Deuteronomy 22:6-7; 25:4; Proverbs 12:10).

Hope this helps.

not that of many Christians

They are "old testament" Christians.

Leviticus is more their style than MML&J.

Zulu, you are in deep shit. Nanc and her trailer-trash brigade are gonna hunt you down and kill you for saying they can't rape the environment. Destruction of any and all things good is the FUNDAMENTAL policy of the Republican party and the GOD FEARING CHRISTIAN CHURCH.

Environmentalist are worse the Satanists or Communists!!! Don't you know your basic Republican talking points?

If you aren't for drill baby drill in the National Parks, you aren't shit!!!

"They are "old testament" Christians."

What the fuck is that?

I just had a cognitive dissonance moment.

"old testament" Christians are more commonly known as JEWS.

Trailer-trash bible thumpers that ignore the GOSPEL are know as the Republican base. Even Jesus wouldn't piss on them if they were on fire.

Dumb question. How can they be old testament Cuhristians. Didn't Christ bring a new message a new Testamony?? How can a Christian Follow the old Testament??

Larry

Those must be some lame nurses not to be able to find a vein in a guy THAT BIG?

Doesnt make sense - he must have veins the size of a mack truck. Something very wrong about this story.

If Jesus came to earth today, every bible thumper on the planet would be calling for him to be sent to Gitmo.

Imagine someone preaching for PEACE and LOVE going around HEALING PEOPLE without asking for proof of citizenship and valid health insurance cards!!!

He'd last about 10 minutes before some teabagger capped his ass!!!!

And forget about Feeding the Poor!!! The Savior would be lynched long before he got around to explaining his views on immigration.

On this very rare occasion Larry and I are in complete agreement.

To paraphrase Vonnegut, who said "even if Jesus wasn't the son of god" ... Even if Jesus is a myth, the Beatitudes are some great notions.

The golden rule should be trivially obvious, but sadly a lot of folks don't get it.

Axe:

The more I read your posts about Jesus, the more I realize you haven't read a Bible.

I'm not sure where you're getting your info from....but it's incorrect.

If letting him live would restore life to his victim then I would say let him be but it won't.

I think the same law should apply when the hang- man's rope breaks. Let the guy go free because it's the will of god.

What's wrong with a vein in the neck or the ankle or the foot??

They could always put a bullet in the fucker's skull, but that might make LarryMohr cry, and wet himself.

I hate to say it. It leaves a big bad taste in My mouth to do so. They should set Him free. He was supposed to be executed by now. The State failed in executing Him so they fucked it up NOT Him, He fullfilled His end of the deal, The State didn't,

Larry

Sorry LOD I am 100% Anti Death Penalty, Sue Me.

They should have done a cut-down to get deeper to where they could find a vein, but they were just nurses, not surgeons, and not qualified to do that. The guy escaped his execution by a loophole in the law. Too bad Ohio did not have a provision for what to do in a case like this. They should have had the ability to put together a quick firing squad. (Gary Gilmore was a nasty murderer, but he went out like a real man).

There was a pedophile murderer in WA--argued to the court to waive all his appeals and have the state kill him.

He killed two boys and put them in his closet after phucking them.

Had to be around 1991 or so??

The state granted his wish and he was hanged.

I agree that lethal injection is cruel and unusual.
Why go to the trouble to do this?

When a short drop and a sudden stop does the job just fine.

Operate and remove the heart.

Sorry LOD I am 100% Anti Death Penalty, Sue Me.

#28 | Posted by LarryMohr at 2009-09-18 11:35 PM

And 100% for releasing criminals for no good reason. (see #27)

Hey the State fucked up LOD. He carried out His end of the sentence. It's not His fault that the ones carrying out the execution failed. Granted He should not have killed but that point is now moot

Larry

For those who care about legal theory, the law exists SOLEY to protect the life and property of the individual against attacks by the rest of the public.
In the case of a wrongful conviction and actual innocence, the law, instead of functioning as defender, turns into an attacker and murders the innocent person. When that happens, the law loses all moral excuse for existing. That situation is morally intolerable.
It breaks my heart, but I have an aunt who is so morally-challenged that she actually believes that the death of a few innocent people is the necessary price society must pay for "all the good" that the death penalty does.
I'm not God, so I can't go there. Obviously many criminals deserve to die. Equally obviously, the wages of sin are death. So all sinners deserve to die. But "deserves" are not the issue when dealing with the coercion-based illusion that human law per se IS.
I'm unalterably opposed to the death penalty for the SOLE reason that mistakes are final and NOT correctable. And I don't want to give moral support to self-evident Golden-Rule-violative immorality.
For any person who lacks the moral clarity to agree with my position: I sincerely hope that you will become one of the actually innocent executed people. That might help clarify you moral vision and thus save your immortal soul! Think about it!

lyricist died recently--i'm sure he'd appreciate dr response...

Larry and Laura, "G-d" has fcuk all to do with it. Are you afraid to type the name of a mythical being... how quaint and sentimental.

The U.S. is a laughingstock to the world in part because of these little episodes of "justice".

This guy has cost the system hundreds of thousands of(your)dollars, if not more. Meanwhile he reaps the benefits of housing, food and clothes, not to mention health care that would no doubt put most of your HMO's to shame.

All when a single bullet would do the job cleanly and efficiently.

Besides, even according to your Bible, it's O.K. to kill people who do "wrong". More murders and atrocities have been carried out in the name of god than for any other reason in history. Of course they were done in "God's name", so they must be O.K..

What about David and Goliath? First degree murder, premeditated manslaughter... ohwaitnevermind Goliath was a Philistine so no problem.

What about all those little cute Egyptian babies got slaughtered when the Israelites were bugging out for the promised land? Ohwellshithappens.

What about the subsequent slaughter of the lawful citizens of said promised land when Joshua and the gang arrive, just like the colonists rolling over the American Indians. Fcukyouwe'rebetter, and let the winners write the history texts.

Do I need to go on?

Larry especially, be cautious about entering a battle of wits when you are totally unarmed. It's flakes like you that have made America so pitifully wasted and incapable of coherent rational thought, and in grave jeopardy of falling off the map entirely.

The State failed in executing Him so they fucked it up NOT Him, He fullfilled His end of the deal, The State didn't,

Larry

#27 | Posted by LarryMohr

Maybe after they let him out he'll come to rape and murder your child next, sounds like the chance of that happening is fine with you.

His end of the deal will be fulfilled when he pays the same price his victim did.

BTW did you do any research on this guy at all before posting? He was already a convicted rapist before being charged and convicted of the crime for which he now faces the death penalty.

Or maybe you're in favor of three strikes before you're out...

.don't kill. It is God's commandment afterall.

He brutally murdered an innocent person, so in LarryWorld, he entered into a contractual relationship.

I kill a random person and the state of Ohio promises to feed me for 25 years, followed by an execution.

"Hell," says Larry. "I murdered the woman and sat on my worthless ass for 25 years. No execution? I'm gonna walk, and sue you for breach of contract!"

No SIr ALL True Christians are New Testament Christians. For that was the purpose for Jesus's coming to earth in Human Flesh. He was to bring about a new Covenant with the Church. We are to use the Old Testament as Historical record But we are to follow Christs Teachings. Everyone comments upon the passage where Jesus declaring I didn't come to abolish the law I have come to fullfill that law. IIRC that was the Moses Laws. We are to live under Christ's commandments.

Larry

Larry, you are spot on. The New Testament is the new covenant that does not append the Old Testament, but supersedes it. Of course you would have to actually read the book to figure t hatout, as clergymen will never tell you that.

Listen when I was first convicted of My crime(Temporary Deprovation of Property)I had a contract with the State of Kansas that I be placed on probation with a suspended sentence of 6 Months. I failed to live upto My end of the contract with the State of Kansas and was subsequently violated. I then had to fullfill My end of the deal those 6 Months. Same goes for Broom. He was sentenced to death. He made it all the way to the execution chamber. He lived upto His end of the contract. It wasn't His fault the state of Ohio failed to live upto THEIRS. I am sorry but that is the crux of the whole shebang. You don't like it then make Ohio change how they perform lethal injections or get another form of capital punishment Vernon. Don't bitch at Me. I believe fair is fair and if we believe in the justice system then we must let Him go free. Tell Me how wrong that is Vernon??????????

Hi Larry,
I disagree with the death penalty in principle,but we have it and some deserve it.Ohio deserves at least three strikes,LOL

he won't go free. his sentence will be commuted. anybody getting all hot and bothered that he'll be set free is an idiot.
personally, i think having to wait 25 years for your death is par for the course. some cruel, heartless, murderous bastards have to wait 4 times as long!
i am against the death penalty, but i'd be for it if we had the option of killing the person with missiles. oh, we have that already. but not actually in THIS country. why don't we just ship convicted capital murderers over to north korea? that would be much easier.
and it's not cruel or unusual. we take terrorists to places like chile all the time.
or is that not constitutional enough?

I am sorry that My words trouble You so.

So Zoo-loo goes to the ancient document to justify the death penalty?

I got some news fer the folks here.... Half of us would be dead if we were tried with the old testament.

Seriously though-I'm against the death penalty-not because I'm a bleeding heart Liberal, but simply because I don't feel my government is capable of inspecting my car and giving me a sticker annually.
Not to mention the whole fucking debacle in Iraq..

Hello

McFly

Our government simply isn't capable of error free executions for crimes...

Otherwise I'd say hangem' high

So, Dimho is a "pre-op"?

A win for the "good guys" in this one. Sorry repubs no murder today.

The Death Penalty the ultimate in Hypocrisy. It not only makes killers of the State it also makes killers out of everyone that supports it. Don't fret I used to be a gunho pro death penalty supporter until I began to reflect and found that made Me just like the killer.

Larry

Let's bring back stoning. If you're going to tie this all up in a pretty old testament eye-for-an-eye bow, then let do it the old fashioned way. Just think of the pay-per-view potential.

How about crucifiction? That was real popular once.

All snark aside, there are those that, through their actions, have abrogated their right to live among us. In some extreme cases I believe it's actually more cruel to warehouse these feral individuals in cages for the remainder of their natural lives--as opposed to simply walking up and putting a round through the back of their head as they eat their last meal. There's a reason they stopped calling prisons penitentiaries. Ain't nobody getting penitent in those gladiator academies. I mean, is there a "humane" method of taking a prisoner's life? I'm not qualified to answer that without falling into the easy trap of rhetorical sophistry.

Looks like the Death Panel didn't do their job.

Always amusing to read history and how those that penned 'cruel and unusual punishment' dealt with criminals. They hung them or put them in front of a firing squad. Much simpler and cheaper than trying to appease this coward SOB who began to cry after the medical technicians couldn't find a vein.

drag this punk out to the dumpster and execute him with a 38 special to the temple.

The U.S. can torture and kill "suspected" terror subjects at will and without regard to due process,
can you name one person this has happened too? Or are you just repeating the "Huffington ComPost"?

Larry, I'm sorry, but your "he held up his end of the bargain" argument may have in fact eclipsed Buffalo's "we need two separate countries" bit.

Right or wrong, in order to 'fulfill his end of the deal", he has to be dead. And he isn't yet.

Plus, the idea that it's the state of Ohio itself that can't find a vein, as the headline says, well.....

I'm against the death penalty in principle, and believe this man should spend life in prison, but your logic here escapes me.

What's also odd is that the article makes no mention of WHY they couldn't find a "suitable" vein.

I agree. And if we are going to execute people, let's do it out in the open to maximize the deterrent effect of the death penalty.

I agree. We should force everyone that supports the Death Penalty to view one live as it happens. Maybe then they would change their minds.

Larry

Sure why not.

Pay Per View TV executions, on the Government sponsored "Take a Life, Give a Life" Network (TLGL).

Let these guys repay what they owe.

All proceeds from said PPV go to health care, problem solved.

All viable organs harvested for transplant into worthy recipients, bonus.

Could even be a "pay as you go" program for some; harvest a kidney here, some bone marrow there... a way to earn extra time alive as you make true amends for your crime.

Who loses? Other than in the end it might actually end up deterring the hell out of crime, causing the need to find alternate funding... Hopefully by then we'll have learned to live without the hate and repression that cause the divisions in society responsible for most of these death penalty crimes.

And it wouldn't take forcing people to view, Larry, look at how whipped up a group of cage-match fans can get over next to nothing. Offer them this shit and they will be falling over themselves to line up, cash in hand; only this time the profits would go to a cause that could truly help them, and their kids.

Why not?

Better yet do it as a reality show.

"Next week, on the TLGL network... Will Meany the Murderer give up his spleen, or has he had enough...? And will he choose the chair, the rope, the injection or the firing squad? To win tickets to view a live execution near you, call 1-976-xxx-xxxx starting 7PM Thursday to text your vote. Calls $1.99/min additional tolls may apply..."

Bring back Ole' Sparky--no problem with frying!

Sfabish, Zed, et al.: This is how you show people that killing is wrong--you kill them!

Quoth the self-perceived-as-brilliant sfabisch: "be cautious about entering a battle of wits when you are totally unarmed."
Look in a mirror when you say that, Brother Bullwinkle!
To those with an IQ higher than their finger and toe total, "God" can be viewed as a metaphor for the self-owning, self-governing individual, with "Satan" being a metaphor for the mindless "gubmint"-worshipping herd of lemmings.
It's not for nothing that many of America's founders were deists. To borrow the syntax of Thomas Paine: Jesus knew that if a man were impressed as fully and as strongly as he ought to be with a logic-based belief in a God, a fixed point of moral reference, an absolute moral order to the universe, his moral life and behavior would be regulated by the force and power of this belief, he would stand in awe of God and of himself (a creation/child of God), and would not do those things which could not be concealed from either. Jesus also understood that to give this belief/faith the full and fair opportunity of life-governing, life-changing force, it is necessary that the belief/faith acts alone in an atmosphere of free will/freedom/truth completely void of all external coercion.
It is an empirically observable FACT that neither "theists" nor "atheists" can prove diddley squat to each other. Therefore, assuming for a moment arguendo both intelligent design (ID) and random conglomeration of molecules (RCOM) to be fairy tales, then per Pascal's Wager, I can see nothing dramatically unintelligent or illogical about making a fully-informed, deliberate, conscious choice to prefer the fairy tale with a happy ending if that gives one a happier outlook on life.
Thinkers like Blaise Pascal and Thomas Paine have more intelligence in one little finger than wannabe-clever ad hominem cutie pies like you have in your entire body. You might want to think about that while you're looking in the mirror!

If you are hearing little voices from God telling you not to kill people, doesn't that make you just as looney as someone who hears little voices from God telling you to kill?

Blah blah BIBLE, blah blah CHRISTIANS, blah blah CRUEL AND UNUSUAL, blah blah, OLD TESTAMENT, blah blah, NEW TESTAMENT.

Bottom line is the guy was sentenced to die for his crime, if they can't find a vein, they should look for a BULLET.
