That any public official, that signed off on this, be not just removed from office, but hanged! Wouldn't that be considered a cruel, and or unusual punishment? No. It's still an authorized method of execution in my state. It isnt cruel and unusual if the state does it Quite the contrary. The Bill of Rights protects persons against acts of the states. Only the state can be accused of "cruel and unusual" punishments. Individual persons, unaffiliated with the state, who act beastly are just plain sons of bitches, and not subject to Constitutional censure.
