A bout of planned executions in Arkansas later this month would reverse progress made by the United States to reduce the number of people it executes every year.

In 2016, the U.S. put 20 people to death, the lowest number since 1991. But in Arkansas, seven men are due to be executed by lethal injection before the month ends, all within 10 days of each other. The macabre reason for the express executions? Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson said the state’s supply of midazolam, one of three drugs used for executions, is about to expire. Midazolam has been used in a number of gruesome botched executions over the past few years, including Clayton Lockett in Oklahoma in 2014 and Ronald Smith in Alabama.




This is all because the drugs for the lethal injection are about to expire. This is ridiculous, we should bring back the electric chair and use the dry sponge.

30-06 or good rope works well and no worries about a murdering sad excuse for a human having to endure a painful death. It is in the constitution.

Dripping of sarcasm.

Ok combine the days all have been on death row and divide by 7 and I will still bet it will equal years.
