Some half assed googling yielded this…

“there are significant differences between the way pets are euthanised and the way lethal injections are administered.

First of all, the typical three drug “cocktail” used in lethal injection is actually illegal to use on animals in most of the states that use it for executions because it is considered too inhumane. Almost all euthanasia by injection in the US is an overdose of barbiturate (sodium pentobarbital), which was originally used as an anesthetic agent. The animal being euthanised slips into unconsciousness very quickly, then the heart stops shortly thereafter. In humans, the 3 drug cocktail consists of some type of sedative followed by pancuronium (a curare derivative that causes paralysis but neither unconsciousness nor pain control) and finally a dose of potassium chloride to stop the heart.

Outlawing the use of barbiturates for lethal injection was a political decision made in the 1970s by politicians who did not want to be accused of treating human beings like animals. Disapproval of the use of curare derivatives for surgery or euthanasia in animals started in the late 1800s. But goodness, no one wants to be accused of treating a human being like an animal!”

Other reasons cited was that the human version is not produced on a mass or routine basis since demand is so low and the drugs can be old and may have lost potency…

I don’t know - just grab the horse version when it’s my time and send in the vet!

Each kid is like a $1m commitment.

Gun control would make so much more sense if we treated guns like vehicles.

Want to drive a car?

New driver?

Pass a test, and get a provisianal license to operate safely with experienced users in your company.

Test to prove proficiency, ensure you don’t have any restrictive health issues that could impact your safe operation of the unit, validate your insurance coverage and you get a standard operators permit.

Need to use the big equipment?

Take some additional safety courses, beef up your insurance and prove you can handle it - with regular check ins and enhanced supervision and you get a commercial license.

Want to do something different, like the gun equivalent of a motorcycle? Another test and license endorsement to use.

Main theory - you can have anything you want but agree to prove and maintain proficiency and be mentally and physically able to operate it. Regular check ins to ensure your abilities do not wain and annual registration.

This is not crazy. If it works for cars, semi trucks, motorcycles etc - it should work for deadly weapons.

And remember, we have handicapped drivers, we have people on probationary permits etc, breathalyzer start switches, etc ……there are lots of places for reasonable accommodations to the infringed and those with limited or restricted capacity.

But to just turn the keys of a semi truck with a double trailer over to 16 year old with near sighted vision?

They’d say you are crazy.

But anyone of legal age can walk in, grab an AR-15 and disappear into the woodwork for the rest of their lives with capacity for mass assault and no one does anything about it.

Just getting started

What a thin skinned loser

The swastikar idiots need to be called out constantly. They know exactly what they are doing. There are no coincidences. These are the willing participants in the far right agenda….
