Seriously. If you’re going to execute people, what the hell is wrong with a bullet? It’s cheap, and properly placed, very quick. Or am I missing the point?Republican Gov. Bill Haslam has signed a bill into law allowing Tennessee to send death row inmates to the electric chair if the state is unable to obtain drugs used for lethal injections.
The law was drawn up as various states were encountering difficulty in obtaining drugs for lethal injections because many of the pharmaceutical companies that make them, mainly in Europe, object to their use in executions. Tennessee lawmakers overwhelmingly passed the electric chair legislation in April, with the Senate voting 23-3 and the House 68-13 in favor of the bill.
"It gives us another option out there. We've had so many problems with lethal injection," said the bill's House sponsor Rep. Dennis Powers, who confirmed that Haslam signed the bill Thursday.
