The constitution prohibits cruel and unusual punishment. It does not guarantee a painless execution.

More to the point, it is cruel AND unusual, not cruel OR unusual.

I think using drugs as a method of execution is inhumane. I personally believe that the method a murderer used on his/her victims is the way the state should render justice.
