What gets me about this is they will never use a quick but brutal method such as a bullet in the head or Guillotine. Ooooh! that is bloody or icky. It could never be as compassionate as the lethal injection. Why we would rather not have executions than do something bloody!

There is an unwillingness to have an honest discussion about execution among the powers that decide. Most wish the issue would go away and the others are against Capital Punishment. The fact is and execution is a simple brutal process that should be carried out by the quickest simple methods like a Guillitine or bullet in the head.

Bullet will cost the government a few cents to buy. The lethal injection crap costs around $100 for the government to buy. Bullet is quicker, cheaper, and little chance for any error.

The guy in Fl that lived for 30 minutes after the injections... how is that possible? The first injection they give you is supposed to knock you out within a minute or two. I think the next two injections shut your heart and lungs down... Must have either been a bad dose of something or his body was having trouble 'processing' the injections. Anyone with any info on this? If ya ask me, a .357 right to the head would have done him just fine!

I realize I am a day late and a dollar short to this discussion, but I think the real discussion should be when is capital punishment the correct punishment and when is it not.

Those who complain about the methods, really just want to not have the discussion about when is it appropriate and when is in not.

Let me see if I can clarify what I mean: Is capital punishment the correct action when someone jay walks, or does not pay the parking meter, vs is capital punishment correct when lives are taken because someone can and wants to?

I happen to think the second situation might be appropriate, but the first situation is clearly not. This is the discussion that should be taking place. Some don't want any capital punishment, so they muddy the waters by arguing the methods of capital punishment.
