Watch Out! This Little Prick Might Hurt

You know, we really do live in a mixed-up world. In other words, as the old saying goes, "Everyone here is crazy except me and you, and I'm not so sure about you." Have you heard about this execution by lethal injection being postponed out in California. Now, first of all, just about anything that goes on in California is going to be filed under the "Strange" department.
But this story is just plain ludicrous. There's this murderer out there by the name of Michael Morales. Morales has been sentenced to die. In fact, he was supposed to have been put to death last night. But, nooooo. Morales is still breathing and we have the lawyers to thank.
Morales' lawyers are concerned about the possibility that their client might feel a little pain when he's injected with the lethal doses that will kill him. Let me make it clear that I'm not in favor of intentionally inflicting pain. You know, I'm not suggesting that this rapist's body parts be put in a vise and that the vise be slowly turned so as to deliberately cause undue suffering, in a somewhat slow and excruciating manner.
Such a thought would never even occur to me. What do you think I am, a sadist or masochist or whatever the correct term would be?
But, hey, if the guy's only a moment or so away from death, I really don't care too much if he feels a tad bit of pain. I feel pain every morning just climbing out of bed. Besides, we're not talking about some poor little fellow who has spent his entire life seeking to alleviate the pain of others.
Besides raping his victim, Morales also was accused (and found guilty) of murdering a teenage girl, back in 1981, by trying to strangle her and then beating her with a hammer and stabbing her. How dare Mr. Morales' lawyers waste the court's time by charging the government with cruel and unusual punishment.
I'm sure those attorneys are patting themselves and each other on the back this morning. They succeeeded in at least delaying the execution. Seems the anaestheseiologists, who were charged with certifying that poor Mr. Morales would be unconscious before he was painfully injected with lethal poisons, couldn't understand exactly how unconscious the guy had to be, so they walked.
You know, if the lawyers and their client are all that worried that the poor torturer of a teenage girl will have a moment of suffering before he buys the farm, why don't those guys in the penal system just offer to shoot him in the head as he walks towards the death chamber? It's quick, probably painless (I've never been shot in the head, so I'm not an authority). That should make everyone happy. Shouldn't it?
I admit I haven't thought this out completely. Why should I start doing something like that at this late date? But, on the surface, I don't see any problems with it. Besides, think of all the taxpayer money that will be saved.
You do agree with me, don't you? Or am I really the only sane one left?
