Gas for Executions Amid Turmoil Over Lethal Injection

What method is the most humane to execute prisoners on death row you think?

 

And we can pay more money for them to have that luxury. Sounds like a great plan.

 

If you’re looking for the least painful way, then a heroin overdose would do the trick.

Make sure it’s a .22 cal so then the bullet will rattle around in their skull like the metal pea in a spray paint can.

 

Its kind of an asinine to try to find a humane way to murder someone. I'm not a supporter of the death penalty but if youre gonna end someones life keep it simple. A bullet to the head would be cheaper in addition to being more humane than either method

 

Pretty easy to have nicer prisons when your country is smaller than the state of Texas and with approx 21 million people less than the 25 million that live in Texas.

 

This is an interesting perspective I had not previously heard or thought of. Is this something you have heard others say?

 

FFS. Being humane isn’t against death but the manner of which it’s carried out. A bullet to the brain is more humane than being drawn and quartered, so there is a humane way to kill someone when compared with other methods.

 

I can see why a single gunshot would be expedient - anyone else favour this method of execution?

We have a suggestion here of a (specific drug) for a lethal injection. Is that preferable to anyone else? How about gas?

 

I say bring back the guillotine since having it as a consequence would probably reduce violent crime.

 

I'm conflicted on capital punishment. On hand, it seems infuriating that a killer can so casually end someone's life, yet all this pomp and ceremony goes into state executions. To me, it somehow cheapens the life of the victim and makes the life of the killer that much more important. On one hand, I resent my taxes going towards housing and feeding a killer, and the scum of the Earth needs to be removed, but on the other hand I don't know that we have the right as a society to decide when someone's forfeited their life.

 

That won’t happen since the interpretation is part of the federal gov.buisnes model. They can’t get rid of the dealers because they are the dealers and make money being such, as well as penalizing the users.

 

give them the same death they gave there victims
