- shifty2, on 10/11/2007, -5/+129Executioner: Any last words? *starts lethal injections*
Executee: Knock, Knock
Executioner: Who's there?
Heart Monitor: "eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee" - nihility, on 10/11/2007, -2/+76"And the other joke is that I am not Patrick Bryan Knight and y'all can't stop this execution now. Go ahead, I'm finished."
I think that's kinda funny.... - spearce, on 10/11/2007, -1/+62what he should have done is tell the funniest joke eva and then die before he gave the punch line. now that would have been a real hoot.
- Spacecow, on 10/11/2007, -0/+60Imagine you haven't been following this story and are reading this headline for the first time.
He was executed, and DIDN'T tell a joke?! The outrage!! - inactive, on 10/11/2007, -0/+57Guess the jokes on us for thinking this guy would deliver the funny.
- Snarfy, on 10/11/2007, -0/+56I would have laughed except for the poor execution...
- h3xZ, on 10/11/2007, -1/+46"eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee" who?
- jsd8cc, on 10/11/2007, -4/+39So I had to endure 10 front page stories about this tripe and nothing happened? Fantastic.
- fober, on 10/11/2007, -4/+37How can you two argue about the death penalty at a time like this?
We'll never know what his joke was. That's the real tragedy. - inactive, on 10/11/2007, -0/+28Maybe it was his way of getting back at the writers of the Sopranos series finale.
- sdrawkcaB, on 10/11/2007, -1/+23Execution does not deliver.
- sockpuppets, on 10/11/2007, -4/+22There's a guy on death row that tried to kill me. I know it's not economically viable, but I want him dead. And I'll be there to see it if I can.
- mrdimn, on 10/11/2007, -1/+18He's definitely not going to do it again NOW!!!
/sarcasm - allengeer, on 10/11/2007, -2/+18.... acts like he's dead before the the injection starts... and then he wakes up and goes "Gotch-" but he's cut off. because he died.
- Tainek, on 10/11/2007, -4/+20The sad thing is, i genuninly think he was sorry. he was a kid high on drugs when he did it, i dont think many people can say they are the same at 40 as they were at 20, people change
I'm no shrink, but i dont think this man would do it again - AncientWeird, on 10/11/2007, -0/+15Reminds me of Rowan Atkinsons stand up:
"Knock Knock."
"Who's there?"
"Death."
"Death wh.." *Crashing sound* - stormgren, on 10/11/2007, -0/+14I agree. That was the joke. But, I guess the _execution_ was poor.
Come on, you had such opportunity and you blew it, slipgrid! - shifty2, on 10/11/2007, -2/+15your mom after I plowed her in the ass last night?
hey, you set yourself up that that one! - Sautechef, on 10/11/2007, -0/+13So a priest, a prison warden, and an inmate walk into a bar...
- uptown, on 10/11/2007, -0/+13People on the Superman ride at Six Flags?
- slipgrid, on 10/11/2007, -0/+12I agree. That was the joke. But, I guess the delivery was poor.
- Anrkist, on 10/11/2007, -6/+17I used to agree with that... I won't throw out the tried and true "He's a waste on my tax paying dollars" excuse... I just think there are things more important in this world then fighting for the lives of murderers.. child rapists... etc.
- jeo77, on 10/11/2007, -0/+9Left in suspense....for EVER
- wannabenomad, on 10/11/2007, -0/+9That was me 5 min ago. I thought maybe it was a typo and that he DID tell a joke. Then according to the article, he sort of told one, just not a good one.
So I'm still confused. - deutscheBag, on 10/11/2007, -2/+10Funny thing happened to me on my way to the death chamber tonight. I ***** myself. Talk about killer gas. Whats with Prison food? Am I right? Am I right? But seriously folks...for my final joke...i'm gonna need a volunteer from the audience.
- bonyicecream, on 10/11/2007, -0/+7Would have been better if he told the joke, and then died of suffocation from laughing too much.
- antechinus, on 10/11/2007, -2/+9The joke is on the US for perpetuating the barbaric practice of State sanctioned murder.
- speedk0re, on 10/11/2007, -3/+10i don't believe in the death penalty either. But i know if it was my parents that he killed, my views would change a little bit, and if the death penalty didn't exist i'd die trying to kill him myself
- floppyparty, on 10/11/2007, -3/+10Well, seeing that our justice system is based around deterrence, I'm guessing most people dont like to die.
- FreydNot, on 10/11/2007, -1/+8(obligatory rim shot)
- h3xZ, on 10/11/2007, -1/+7*sigh* im going to hell for this....
the girl in this article?

digg me down - Markpdotcom, on 10/11/2007, -2/+7Will you tell him a joke?
- Brak710101, on 10/11/2007, -0/+5Yeah, I don't quite get that comment.
Would suck though if he turned out innocent or something. - havokzero, on 10/11/2007, -1/+6You must live and breath Digg.
- wishninja, on 10/11/2007, -0/+5So how many innocent people dieing at the hands of the state is and acceptable number? We know the justice system is flawed we know that innocent people are being executed, so go ahead make a guess. 10%? 20%? 5% accuracy good enough? Are you willing to die for the death penalty? We are all at risk, I would bet you are much more likely to be innocent and executed then die in a terrorist attack but we spend trillions of dollars on that.
- atdigg, on 10/11/2007, -0/+5I guess the joke was on him....
- SteveRogers, on 10/11/2007, -0/+4You see, it was us, the audience, that got executed. It makes perfect sense.
- Wargalas, on 10/11/2007, -4/+8No it isn't. It's a punishment for a heinous crime that society (and a jury more importantly) said should be met out.
- thatgirlismine, on 10/11/2007, -1/+5Heineken!?! ***** that *****! Pabst Blue Ribbon!
- inactive, on 10/11/2007, -0/+4Definitely a lot of innocent people in there. It's very easy to falsely accuse someone or make a mistake and then find that no one will listen to you.
- Matsky, on 10/11/2007, -0/+4"And the other joke is that I am not Patrick Bryan Knight and y'all can't stop this execution now. Go ahead, I'm finished."
Err... Excuse me if I'm wrong, but at nine minutes before his execution, and considering that is actually a joke, isn't this whole story... wrong? - crashingechelon, on 10/11/2007, -2/+6For delivery call dominoes.
- Urusai, on 10/11/2007, -0/+4Who's standing up? At most, some people are against the death penalty on principle. The rest are just laughing with the circus clowns.
- spearce, on 10/11/2007, -5/+9No.
half a cat. - tcorbud, on 10/11/2007, -2/+5the best joke told before an execution
http://pbfcomics.com/archive/PBF012AD-Gotcha_The_Clown.jpg - robojerk, on 10/11/2007, -1/+4As a society, should we tolerate people to commit crimes like murder, rape, etc.?? If you are like me and say "No, we should not tolerate such crimes" then a fitting punishment needs to be exercised when people break these laws. Death is a fitting punishment and it sends a statement to those thinking of comitting similiar crimes that if you do that you will be punished.
Each society needs to decide how to handle people that disrupt the well being of it's people. I can rationalize with both pro-life & pro-deat ideas but in the end I do not think our society should tolerate it and do what is necessary to prevent it. - sockpuppets, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3Yup.
- combustion8, on 10/11/2007, -2/+5http://www.tdcj.state.tx.us/statistics/deathrow/drowlist/knight.jpg
and some of you idiots stand up for this scum? - DaedalusX, on 10/11/2007, -1/+4See, there were these two guys in a lunatic asylum…and one night…one night they decide they don’t like living in an asylum any more. They decide they’re going to escape! So like they get up on to the roof, and there, just across the narrow gap, they see the rooftops of the town, stretching away in moon light…stretching away to freedom.
Now the first guy he jumps right across with no problem. But his friend, his friend daren’t make the leap. Y’see he’s afraid of falling… So then the first guy has an idea. He says “Hey! I have my flash light with me. I will shine it across the gap between the buildings. You can walk across the beam and join me.” B-But the second guy just shakes his head. He suh-says …he says “What you think I am crazy? You would turn it off when I was half way across. - inactive, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3The joke's on us.
