Firing Squads Are So Back

THE SQUAD’S BACK TOGETHER BAYBAY.

Inmates on death row better get ready to go out with a bang. After Sleepy Joe placed a moratorium on executions, Trump’s Department of Justice is not only restarting executions—they’re also bringing back the firing squad.

The Daily Wire reports:

Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche announced a series of new measures to strengthen enforcement of the federal death penalty, clearing the way for the DOJ to carry out executions once inmates exhaust their appeals.

“Among the actions taken are readopting the lethal injection protocol utilized during the first Trump Administration, expanding the protocol to include additional manners of execution such as the firing squad, and streamlining internal processes to expedite death penalty cases,” Blanche said.

“These steps are critical to deterring the most barbaric crimes, delivering justice for victims, and providing long-overdue closure to surviving loved ones,” he added.

The directives fulfill a campaign promise for Trump, who on his first day back in office ordered the attorney general to “pursue the death penalty for all crimes of a severity demanding its use.”

Works for me.

When it comes to removing the scum of the earth, I’m all for keeping things economical. I also think a firing squad sends more of a “don’t even think about it” message to those who may be considering committing an evil crime.

After Biden’s weak-on-crime policies (which included granting clemency to a man who murdered a 12-year-old girl), it’s time for some monsters to meet their Maker.
