I will. I live in Nebraska. A state that sanctions the death penalty. For a couple of years now (until yesterday) NE was without a method of execution because the US Supreme Court ruled the states then method of death-the electric chair as cruel and unusual punishment. Yesterday, the state put into law lethal injection as the legal form of death in the state of NE.
