Injections are a silly invention of ours, I think.

With all the hollering about "cruel and unusual punishment" for any possible execution method, I've always wondered about something.

Why not a massive overdose of heroin? The guys dies, but he dies really happy, so it's tough to claim it's cruel.

Have to admit it would be a bit unusual.

A productive use for all those drugs we confiscate each year.

Unless they’re addicts, I’ve read that first time users vomit. It would be A-OK with me, if they choked to death on their own vomit.

I’m not opposed to your idea...LOL.

Hanging, when done in the British style, as it is in India, is probably the most humane form of execution in existance. When done properly, they are dead within 20 seconds of being removed from the condemned cell.
