Justice Discharged

The Christian state of South Carolina will shortly join the Christian states of Utah, Mississippi and Oklahoma in carrying out executions by firing squad, despite the risk of giving rise to a perceived if tenuous link between violence and guns. The long-standing shortage of drugs for lethal injections has caused several Christian states to re-evaluate their options for mortificatory justice, and South Carolina has been itching for a fix these past ten years, during which thirty-seven potential beneficiaries have piled up on Death Row. Liberal snowflakes attempted to emasculate the new law with pettifogging amendments, such as forcing those who impose the death penalty to observe the process of implementation; but in the Christian state of South Carolina the Lord has laid down a self-evident and inalienable distinction between those who do and those who do not, morally speaking, need to face the consequences of their actions.
