My friend Laura Moye knocks this one out of the park:

Brandon Rhode was rushed to the hospital today to prevent him from dying following his attempt at suicide. This afternoon, the Georgia Department of Corrections announced a delay in his scheduled execution, vaguely referring to an “incident”. Rhodes did not get strapped to the gurney tonight, but the state may try to kill him Thursday instead.

The death penalty debate in the U.S. needs more opponents to pull back the curtain surrounding executions, as Moye does here, and more proponents who are willing to think about executions and consider what we’re actually doing here.
