Idaho passes bill to allow firing squads to execute death row inmates

NewsNation Deputy Managing Editor Jake Novak seems pretty upset over Idaho passing a bill to bring back firing squads. Lethal injection was humane, and a firing squad is “the most inhumane execution” method the United States has seen in decades.

Idaho passes a bill allowing firing squads when lethal injection drugs are unavailable (now). This is where the anti-death penalty “humanitarians” have left us: They pushed pharma to stop making the drugs, & now we're close to the most inhumane execution in the U.S. in decades.

So we have the anti-death penalty humanitarians to thank for this? Awesome.

A properly done firing squad would be relatively painless. Also I don’t care.

Firing squad is pretty painless compared to other forms of execution

It's quick.

Firing Squad is far more humane than lethal injection. Messier but quicker and painless but for a split second.

I'd take the squad

Hell yes!

I’d rather have a firing squad than any other form of capital punishment.

This editor would take the firing squad over the electric chair.

As we just said in another post, a single round from an AR-15 can separate the upper body from the lower body and also explode your skull. That’d be a quick death.
