The lead executioner of a convicted killer who took twice the normal time to die never received any medical training....
After the botched execution, then-Gov. Jeb Bush halted executions in the state and created the panel to examine whether improvements can be made to the way lethal injections are administered.
How about treating women as well as we treat convicted murderers? Who is calling for drastic corrective measures after unlicensed people were caught doing abortions at a Miami clinic? NOBODY, that's who.
Dr. Peter Springer, one of three doctors on the 11-person panel, said the people conducting lethal injections should be medical professionals.
Is that kind of creepy? I find it creepy.
American Medical Association guidelines bar doctors from taking part, directly or indirectly, in executions.
But the AMA has no qualms about doctors slaying fetuses. Doctors aren't allowed to kill the aggressive and guilty; only the helpless and innocent. Yeah, that makes ethical sense.
Tlaloc, your personal assumptions about fetuses prove nothing. Your personal opinion that they have nor more moral significance than a snotty hankie ought not to be what we base law or social policy upon. As much as I'm sure you'd wish that we would.
