The chopping off of the head is guaranteed to work.
Currently what they're doing is lessening punishments for crimes....it's like there is zero concerns for criminals today of being sent to jail...to them it's simply going into a gated “community” and they refer to it as such. Many criminals have a better life in jail then they could hope for outside!

Stab them in the head with scissors and use a vacuum cleaner to scoop out the brain matter.
It’s okay with politicians and the voting public when this is done to children. Why give condemned murders anything more humane?
And why do we never hear about cats and dogs suffering from botched executions when they are injected with the toxic chemicals that are used daily?
My understanding is that some of the companies are refusing to sell their wares to the state. You can only complain about refusal of service if you are a homosexual, black, etc.
If they absolutely have to use chemical means as opposed to hanging, why not do like the veterinarians do? A simple overdose of anesthetics, they fall asleep and don’t wake up.
Once sentenced, turn em over to the families of the victim. Let them deal with the task.
Put them atop a certain amount of C-4. It either blows or it doesn’t, so no such thing as botching it, really. No way they’d feel it, either. The drawback would be cleaning up.
What any number of heroin addicts accomplishing voluntarily, medically trained government technicians seem incapable.
Forcing kids to watch hangings would give them a little perspective on what happens when you mess around and break the law. In England, Middle Ages, they used to make their kids watch executions to prevent them from falling into crime.
I don’t think the problem is the method, so much as people having problems taking lives. It could be that members of the execution team are getting agitated at what they do.
I've been saying this for years. Given that people kill themselves for the experience after prior unsuccessful "attempts," execution by heroin overdose neither could be called cruel nor unusual.
Given the nature of the crimes involved, I seriously doubt one would have any difficulty finding someone competent to do that job voluntarily.
You have a good point.
Lately though, with the number of people being found to be innocent, I think the issue of establishing guilt for that particular penalty should be done more efficiently.
“Vets have drugs they use everyday to humanly put down animals. Won’t these same drugs work on people?”
Exactly. What the heck is the problem? Anesthetize, then stop the heart. An overdose of propofol gave Michael Jackson a nice little release from the planet. People die of drug overdoses all the time and have no clue. Why are they overcomplicating this so much? Typical dense liberals. No grasp of the obvious.
that takes too much brains for them to figure out....I say find a vet to do it, they can do a dog in less than than a minute...sorry to say I have had to put down 2 and they come out to the car and do it. FAST.
I think hanging is the cheapest and projects a certain pall amoung some that might be expecting it. There is a science to it. I would think length of rope to body weight so as to snap the neck but not dismember the head from the body.
That is akin to saying our legal system is so convoluted by its worship of stare decisis while the entire educational system is so deficient that the jury system is necessarily dysfunctional, it is incapable of delivering just results. To which I would agree. Different problem.
inert gas sounds like a whole cottage industry. just hang em. some will gargle for while. some might have their heads come off but cleaning up is a lot easier. no gas left to asphyxiate the innocent.
