Florida announced it is resuming executions, the next scheduled for Nov. 15.
That is unfortunate. Civilized societies should not be strapping human beings down and killing them.
Florida, a capital punishment leader, suspended executions after one was botched last December. A first dose of chemicals failed to kill Angel N. Diaz. He moved, squinted, tried to mouth words. He received a second dose and took 34 minutes to die.
An autopsy showed that when inserting the lethal needles the executioner missed the veins, causing the slow death.
Barbaric.
