Here’s a Minute-by-Minute Breakdown of Tennessee’s Failed Execution

Tennessee’s failed execution of convicted murderer Christa Pike was the talk of the news world on Thursday. New details, which have prompted calls for the United States to halt the death penalty, emerged last night.

Media witnesses described hearing Pike continue to breathe, snore, and speak after receiving her first not-so-lethal injection, saying she told officials that her arm hurt and asked if it was supposed to feel that way in the moments after she was supposed to die. Her all-female execution team then gave her a second injection, which also did not work. An ambulance arrived to bring Pike, who was very much still alive, to the hospital nearly two hours after her scheduled death.

Governor Bill Lee has ordered a review of the botched execution and postponed another capital punishment scheduled for later this year, calling what happened in the death chamber “deeply disturbing.” Pike is in critical condition.

Well any long-time readers of this blog should know that I am a gun-owning pro-life pro-choice little L libertarian.  So here is YET ANOTHER reason to oppose the death penalty.

I’m really tired of enumerating my reasons: 

  1. It’s immoral.  Life is sacred.
  2. It’s inefficient.  It really does NOT discourage killings.
  3. It’s costly.  Estimates range the cost of a capital trial in the millions.
  4. It’s wasteful.  There are many uses for the condemned in real life.
  5. It’s desensitizing.  It tells “We, The Sheeple” that Gooferment is allowed to do it.
  6. It’s inhumane.  Botched executions and even those that aren’t cause needless pain.
  7. It’s error prone.  How many stories do we hear about “mistakes”?  What about the ones we don’t hear about? Pencils have erasers; death penalties are final.
  8. It’s political.  Prosecutors prosecute capital case for the publicity and advancement.
  9. It’s rarely final.  Ever hear of “last minute stays”.  Or sentences being reversed.

I’m sure that there are a lot more but I con’t think of them.

This makes me ashamed that I can’t stop it.

POLITICAL: What “child marriage” is still legal in parts of the USA! Where are the feminists

California bans child marriage, a practice still legal in 32 US states

Child Marriage Just Became Illegal in California

Believe it or not, child marriage is still legal in 32 American states. As of yesterday, California is not one of them.

Gavin Newsom approved legislation making California the 18th state to ban residents from marrying children on Wednesday, signing the bill alongside a woman whose parents allowed her to marry a 50-year-old when she was just 16. Approximately 9,000 girls have married adult men in California each year, according to the advocacy group Unchained At Last. The ban will take effect in January.

It is pretty remarkable that the federal government has never passed a similar law. How can Washington politicians lecture the rest of the world about freedom and democracy, while at the same time turning a blind eye to child marriage in their own country?

Sorry, I’d expect this in some backward thirds world country but not it the USA.  I guess that “rich pedophiliac tech elites” that I hear cited on at least two podcast I regularly listen to are absolutely correct to call this out.

GOVERNACIDE: A “death panel” claims another life!

‘This is Murder’ — Baby Indi Dies After UK’s Socialised Health System Removed Life Support, Blocked Parents from Seeking Private Care

Kurt Zindulka1 — 4 Nov 2023

*** begin quote ***

Lila Rose, the director of the anti-abortion group Live Action, said: “Let me be clear: the British government murdered her. They denied the right of Indi’s parents to pursue other treatment for her, keeping her captive by the court-mandated medical team that decided Indi must die. The medical team violated their sacred duty to Do No Harm.

“This is murder, plain and simple. It’s a stain on the national conscience of the United Kingdom. There must be a reckoning, there must be reform, and there must be reparations for the evil acts committed by both the medical teams and the UK courts.”

*** end quote ***

Sorry but every one laughed at Sara Palin calling out the “death panels” in socialized medicine.

What would you call this?

Who owns the child?  Certainly not the Gooferment, the Medical Profession, or the doctors.

If this baby was named Buffet, Gates, or Bezos, then you think the decisions would have been different?  

Where do the politicians and bureaucrats get off deciding life or death!

I guess “human rights” come when you can pick up a weapon and defend them.

Argh!

MONEY: Can bitcoin stop the “bad guys”? Can anything?

Wednesday, March 23, 2022

BITCOIN CAN BE THE FOUNDATION OF HUMAN RIGHTS

60 years ago, it was not Syrians, Afghans, Iranians and people from various African states who had to leave their homes and sought refuge.

It was Kazakhs, Ukrainians, Jews, Poles, Russians and Germans who needed a new home before, during and after World War II. Displaced by an occupying power, by the ruling government and by hunger and war.

Many had to leave their hometowns and were not able to take much with them, let alone transfer money across national borders. This is what happened to many Jews. Refugees were deprived of their remaining possessions in Germany. In a perfidious way, the war and the extermination of the Jews were thus co-financed.

Within experiences of these and other inhuman acts, the Universal Human Rights have been defined. A commission led by Eleanor Roosevelt worked out 30 articles under the auspices of the United Nations in 1948.

Reading these 30 articles, it becomes clear that the potential bad guy is often seen on the side of the state or government.

*** and ***

Everyone has the right to freely access a healthy international currency!

I certainly like that it’s inflation proof.  It may be a hopeless gesture to liberty, but what choice do we have?

The United States Government’s Willful Ignorance Is Costing Soldiers’ Lives

To that end, it has been my contention that this administration, the past administration and the entire upper end structure of the military machine has failed miserably. Not only have they chosen the wrong strategy to achieve a definable victory for their nation, they chose one that has been disproportionately brutal for our forces while providing cover for the enemy and the population that has proven over and over again to be untrustworthy.

History has defined and will continue to define only a miniscule number of opportunities for a theater-wide application of the precepts of Counterinsurgency Doctrine to have been efficacious. Even a casual glance at the human terrain in either Iraq or Afghanistan, with Syria and Iran to possibly follow, should have given the critical thinker everything they needed to adequately keep COIN under lock and key in the vault of terrible ideas.

*** and ***

First of all, if someone can point me toward the ongoing, public record of support for America in either of these operations or the public record of Muslim denunciation of the actions of the “terrorist” or “radicalized” Muslim or Jihad as a war doctrine, Taqiyya as a deceptive practice with the intent of keeping the enemy off balance, please show me?

The clear evidence only suggests groups as defined by those who willingly strap on bombs and those who do not. Unfortunately, we know that from within the second group comes the financial and spiritual support for the first.

Suggesting you can parse these two and do harm to one while garnering support for said harm from the “moderates” simply misses the truth about religion – all religion!

*** and ***

We watch the wanton destruction of human life by the forces of Islam and the associated silence from the “moderates” every day. Is it the contention of those who submit to the “two Islams” vision that we should continue to assume the best of a people whose religion is belligerent to non-believers?

*** end quote ***

The First Sargent correctly imho distills the “problem” into the concept: “It not what we think, it’s what it is that counts.”

Their “moderates” support their “extremists”.

Any failure to recognize this fact in policy, strategy, or tactics dooms us to failure. And, failure, in this case, translates into dead human beings. Soldiers and civilians on both sides are lost due to the stupidity of our leadership. Or lack there of.

We need to get the girls and boys out of the fire zone until we figure it out.

“We, The Sheeple” learned nothing from Viet Nam.
