An Alabama inmate would be the test subject for the “experimental” execution method of nitrogen hypoxia, his lawyers argued, as they asked judges to deny the state’s request to carry out his death sentence using the new method.

In a Friday court filing, attorneys for Kenneth Eugene Smith asked the Alabama Supreme Court to reject the state attorney general’s request to set an execution date for Smith using the proposed new execution method. Nitrogen gas is authorized as an execution method in three states but it has never been used to put an inmate to death.

Smith’s attorneys argued the state has disclosed little information about how nitrogen executions would work, releasing only a redacted copy of the proposed protocol.

    Make sure the pentagram is nice and even. Remember, the inside angle is 36 degrees.

    Even those who defend murderers should learn to use a straight-edge and compass.

      Where did I defend a murderer?

      I’m thirsty for their blood just like you!

      There’s nothing more important than killing people who we’ve already removed from society; how else are we going to satisfy our horniness?

        Still breathing our air. I guess those who defend convicted murderers enjoy breathing in what they exhale. Do you want to fluff up their pillow too?

          You keep saying I’m defending a murderer when I just want to get my rocks off like you.

          Unless fluffing their pillow makes you climax better? I’m into it if you are.

          And fuck them for taking all of our air! We need that shit!
