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.

Ain't nobody got time for being on death row for 20 years

Suicide in some places makes you a criminal. There's a tasteless joke here somewhere, but I'm too tired to find it.

Only if you do it wrong.

Is that what you were going for? I wouldn’t say that is tasteless. Poor taste, sure, but it does have taste.

i think i would rather just do the "usual suspect route" and pull out a shotgun and engage with "advanced strategy"

And then leave a rather humorous note, to hopefully not traumatize whoever the hell is left to clean that up, and probably some money for them as well.
