The wheel of karma continues to turn.

You think this is karma? Even if he was guilty of heinous shit, he deserves to rot in obscurity.

Edit: to add an "if"

I posted a reply to the other person's comment then accidentally hit delete rather than edit and had to repost it.

He chose this method? Are people THAT scared of needles that they’d prefer getting shot?

Is exsanguination painful? I understand the process by which a blood vessel itself is breached could cause localized pain of varying degrees, but assuming local anesthetic was applied at the extraction point, is the actual process of bleeding out physically painful?

Exsanguination itself? No - it starves your brain of oxygen so you fall unconscious pretty quickly with enough flow.

Getting enough flow to lose consciousness quicky? That's painful.

Assuming local anesthetic was used to minimize the pain, a cut to the femoral artery might do it quickly. Google search says it only takes 3-5 minutes, sometimes less depending on the severity of the cut. Might be able to hasten things if you cut the femoral in each leg, too

Well, if I'm ever executed, I hope all my blood and organs and whatever else can be harvested and donated to a children's hospital.

good, fuck every other kind of execution.

Obviously capital punishment isn't ideal. But this one actually works so lmao.

Really nothing inhumane about firing squad.

In terms of execution methods. Not debating the morality of execution in itself.
