A South Carolina man has been executed by firing squad, becoming the first U.S. prisoner in 15 years to die by this method. Brad Sigmon was pronounced dead at 6:08 p.m. Friday after being shot by three prison employee volunteers with rifles. He is the first South Carolina prisoner to be executed by bullets.

    Jesus Christ himself famously stopped an execution and said it was wrong. And was later executed by the state.

      That’s book Jesus.

      Book Jesus is a dirty DEI socialist according to American conservatives. They want Fox News Jesus. The one that thinks children should go hungry and that gay people are enemies of the state. You know, real conservative values.
