In 15 days, Alabama will torture a 7th man to death with nitrogen gas. Weird how the social media outrage hasn’t extended to repetitively torturing people with nitrogen gas.

🔊 Last Thursday, Alabama savagely gas-tortured a sixth man to death. On October 23rd, three weeks from today, Alabama has a seventh gassing. Weird how more attention isn’t being paid to that. In June, I called it, the gassings, “the descent of mankind.”

Alabama’s 7th nitrogen-gassing torture is scheduled for October 23rd. It’ll be the United States’s (and the world’s) 8th execution by forced nitrogen gas inhalation, as Louisiana has tortured one man to death this way, too.

Weird that not a single other person has published an article about Alabama’s 6th nitrogen-gassing torture this past Thursday.

Why are we not talking about this more? We’re fucking gassing humans in 2025. Nothing about this is ok…

Per my last few posts—please see those—the United States’s 7th nitrogen-gassing torture and Alabama’s 6th—will be on Thursday, September 25. (Need a free link to “Gassing humans to death is wrong?” archive.ph/bRmbM).

In precisely a week from this post, Alabama will torture a 6th man with nitrogen gas. Odd how that hasn’t generated more attention. In the past when a state tortured human beings over and over, attention was paid to the subject—and people tried to stop it. #deathpenalty www.yahoo.com/news/article...

🗣️Alabama has another nitrogen-gassing execution on Thursday; it’ll mark the 7th execution by nitrogen-gassing in history. After the 4th nitrogen-gassing, when my former client was barbarically tortured to death this way, I published “Atrocity after atrocity in Alabama.” www.yahoo.com/news/atrocit...

You omit that it was when you complained the Tylenol wasn’t the “extra strength” kind that you really got his empathy. Because as a drug dealer he has published numerous peer-reviewed articles showing a craving for “extra strength” Tylenol means you may develop autism. Especially pregnant law profs!

Per my last post—and much of my recent timeline (please see that)—Alabama has another nitrogen-gassing execution Thursday, the state’s 6th.

ICYMI ⬇️ Alabama’s next gassing is Thursday, Sept. 25th. Also the victim’s son’s column about how he doesn’t want the gassing was published in The Montgomery Advertiser today. My other column “Alabama nitrogen-gassing unwanted by victim’s son” will be republished in the Advertiser soon. I’ll post it.

Niney talked about how when Santa went on “strike”—and wouldn’t play—and wouldn’t lend Niney his drum sticks, Niney broke a broomstick 🧹 in two, gave the two pieces to legendary percussionist “Sticky,” and pretty soon, Sticky was recreating the flying cymbals 🤣 🥁 www.reggae-vibes.com/articles/202...
