A firing squad has executed a South Carolina man who killed an off-duty police officer decades ago. It is the second time the rare execution method has been used by the state in the past five weeks.

A firing squad is set to kill a South Carolina inmate. Friday's execution will be the second time in the past five weeks the state will have carried out an execution using that method, which previously has been associated with political terror or military justice.

Is this true?

Arizona legislation to allow death row executions by firing squad or gas chamber?

I know cruelty is the point, but this is basically crying out for blood.

What is it like to witness an execution by firing squad? @AssociatedPress reporter Jeffrey Collins describes South Carolina's capital punishment of Brad Sigmon.

"I might now be unique among U.S. reporters: I’ve witnessed three different methods — nine lethal injections and an electric chair execution," he writes.

Today in Labor History January 17, 1977: The U.S. resumed capital punishment after a ten-year hiatus, by executing Gary Gilmore by firing squad in Utah. Check out the classic punk song, “Gary Gilmore’s Eyes,” by the Adverts. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3swspID3Nxk

The U.S. is one of only 27% of the world’s nations that continue to practice capital punishment. Out of the 40 countries designated as “developed,” the U.S. is one of only four that still have capital punishment on the books. Belarus is the only European country that still practices it, as it is banned in the EU. Russia, which still has the death penalty on the books, hasn’t executed anyone since 1999. And the U.S. is one of only 11 countries that has executed children since 1990, in violation of the Convention on the Rights of the Child, which the U.S. has refusedc to ratify. In 1992, Bill Clinton refused to stay the execution of Ricky Ray Rector, a cognitively-impaired man, in order to prove to the voters that he was tough on crime (and to deflect attention from his sex scandals). For his last meal, Rector asked to save his desert, pecan pie, for later, not even realizing there would be no “later” for him. In 2002, the U.S. banned execution of people with intellectual disabilities.

Today in Labor History November 16, 1849: Russian authorities gave a death sentence to author Fyodor Dostoevsky for anti-government activities linked to a radical intellectual group called the Petrashevsky Circle. He and his colleagues were lined up before the firing squad when, at the last minute, a cart arrived with a letter from the Tsar, commuting their sentence. He still had to serve 4 years hard labor in Siberia. Dostoevsky alludes to his experience before the firing squad in his 1868-1869 novel, “The Idiot.”

Does Yevgeny Prigozhin really think Belarus will facilitate a deal with Putin?
He's known Putin for a long time. Does he think Putin will forgive him, especially if reports are true and Putin left Moscow for his personal refuge to "work remotely " from there ?
