Stop drop and roll is actually the one thing that people should learn, because in the general population a large number of people do catch have their clothes catch on fire and need to be able to put it out the right way.
Equality is having most city councils be mixed, and a roughly even number of all men or all women councils where most candidates are all omen or all men. Not every council needs to be split, but at least one of the underrepresented group is a positive as a counterbalance to all the ones that are all men.
One thing to keep in mind is that any kind of government is at risk of being the the group with the bigger stick. A dictatorship only works because the group that supports the dictator keeps them in power. A democracy can still treat some of its citizens terribly, and the structure of the government makes is harder to oppose than "the guy with the bigger stick".
Gotta get the CO2 out to avoid the suffocation feeling, and they already have some kind of mask thing that they won't even share the plans for. Because it is amateur bullshit like all of the other execution methods.

If I was dying of cancer and a doctor was managing the setup, yeah it would be great. But some amateur putting someone to death with Home Depot leftovers because medical professionals won't participate in the death penalty due to having ethics means that it will probably go as wrong as their previous attempt to put this guy to death.
The Healy would get involved if there was a need just like every other coast guard ship so there is no reason to exclude it so it.
