Albama (lemy.lol)

Bluesky Post

TranscriptAlabama suffocated a man to death in a gas chamber tonight after starving him so he wouldn't choke on his own vomit as they did it. And this was deemed perfectly legal by multiple courts in the vaunted American legal system.

That's what happens when you value institutions over people.

Murdering someone should not be expedited and made "humane", cause then it just becomes a clinical procedure, and removes all the nasty bits that go with taking a like.

Making it easier for the state to continue doing it. If it was messy and gruesome they would think twice
