Agreed.
So is electricity.
... and requires no drugs. Missouri is also looking into firing squads.

#9 looks like a real heart-breaker.
I think thats the Winchester Super Shorts

Just use Heroin.
They still have “Ol’ Sparky”, just dust him off, charge him up, and let them “ride the lighten’”.
Do you want regular or extra crispy?
Or nitrogen.
Throw them in a pit with starving lions - Win, Win, Win, Win - Lions get fed saving money, perps get their rewards with no money spent, no expense drugs needed saving money and no funeral expenses saving money. Where is the down side?
And rope is reusable...
Number 9 looks like it would do an efficient job.
How hard is nitrogen to obtain?
Pull old Sparky back in from the garage, a few replacement parts from Radioshack and you’re good to go.
