A WOOD Chipper... sheesh!
“CO2 is inert. CO2 does not kill, it simply displaces O2”
No, that’s not correct. Excess CO2 triggers the need to take a breath. In other words, you know it when the CO2 level goes too high.
With nitrogen you don’t have that reaction.
I can assure everyone personally that you won't know or feel a thing. My wife rescued me.
Don’t know that an entire chamber would be required to be filled with nitrogen the way the traditional cyanide gas chamber was. Just strap the POS to an immovable chair, seal a mask over his face, and turn on the nitrogen. Permanent nitey nite.
By the same method as their victims did?
Holy shit.
Back in the early 80s (before lock out/tag out) the semiconductor facility I worked at had a fixture clean room with masks fed by house air. Unfortunately the lines were purged with nitrogen and the facilities person never switched back to air. 2 techs died, never knew they were being suffocated.
How about wood chipper. Or bongo bongo.
Or use pure helium. No idea what the side effects would be but the imate’s last words would be hilarious.
A few years ago I read an article about some inspectors that went into the hold of a ship that was full of scrap iron. The rusting iron had removed all the O2 from the air. They were unconscious in 15 seconds and died.
F-that, “eye for an eye”. Those on death row are subhumans who extinguished life of others with not a care in the world.
“Get a rope.”
Personally, I favor a variation on the Teddy Kennedy method. Drop an air-tight container into 10 feet of water, then break the seal.
Painful? Oh, well. I’m sure the victim(s) of the condemned’s crime(s) endured some serious physical and possibly mental pain.
It’s a new way for Execution in the US. They should try it and see how it goes.
What about laughing gas?
How about the one with this guy?
Ask anyone who has almost died from carbon monoxide poisoning - it’s horrible - worst headache ever, severe nausea, throwing up - least painful?
Not so.
Been there, done that.........
Helium will kill you. I know of someone who killed themselves that way. You just fall asleep and suffocate.
I prefer that states have the option of the firing squad: cheap, reliable, effective.
Gases however, have a problem. They work off the assumption that the condemned will hold their breath, then gulp in the gas. However, in Arizona, a prisoner just continued to breathe normally, cyanide gas, and died a horrific death of suffocation, quite obvious to observers.
