Staying Executions

After the botched lethal injection on Sept. 15 of convicted murderer and rapist Romell Broom, Ohio Governor Ted Strickland has delayed Broom's execution along with those of two other inmates while the state reviews its death-penalty procedures. Technicians tried unsuccessfully for two hours to access Broom's veins before aborting the effort. Death-penalty opponents hope the state will follow others in abolishing the practice.

This is very ironic actually, the Technicians failed to find the veins in Broom's body so they couldn't inject him with the lethal injection that will end his life. And still after two hours, they still couldn't find a vein that will allow the injection, so they postpone the death-penalty date to sometime in the future. This is very sad for Broom, he's like prepared to be killed and they "failed" to kill him, causing him to suffer for a few more days. This is just sad. Too bad since he is a murderer and a rapist.

    @ admin: so does any "facial expression" count as proper English?

  2. yes. due to the widely acceptance of emoticons since 2007. We officially accepts facial expression since they now makes online emotions sharing possible, which improves understandability between interactions.
