Firing squads are never faulty…and they are quick. What’s not to like?

I’ll sign up for the firing squad.

What’s the problem again?

Odd that the same drugs that are too cruel and unusual to execute a convicted criminal are just peachy-keen for for giving granny or a disabled infant a death with dignity, ain’t it?

Saying that there were 14,196 homicides in 2013, but only 39 executions isn’t helpful.

The average time before a death row inmate is executed is around 16 years.

That complicates the equation a lot!

Firing squads are a bad idea.

The prisoner to be executed should be given a thorough medical examination. On the day of his execution, he should be sent to the hospital infirmary, anathematized, pithed like a frog, and then his tissues and organs salvaged.

In this way the capital offender will be be able to, in a small way, repay some of his debt to society.

“Bungled execution...” ?

Well, if the fellow died, it worked just fine. Might not have been elegant but the bastage still died.

Problem is lack of practice as the stats show. Practice makes perfect, so speed up the time table and move ‘em all out.

” In some instances, such as the bungled execution of Oklahoma murderer-rapist Clayton Lockett last year, the results have been gruesome and disturbing.”

He died and painfully for his sins. I call that a success story.

If firing squads do come back, I am certain they will no longer allow the condemned man to enjoy a last cigarette, as it would be hazardous to his health and that of his executioners.

I think they should use Nitrous Oxide.

It is used in dentistry for pain.

They could start with a low dose and keep increasing it until the criminal is dead. Let it run an additional 15 minutes to make sure.

There for sure would be no pain.

The whole purpose of the guillotine was quick humane execution. Maybe we should try that.

Notice the three bullet holes in the wooden planks behind the chair.

I hadn’t heard about the nitrogen gas chamber. Pretty effective, and the pantywaists can’t cut off access to nitrogen, since close to 80% of the atmosphere is made up of it.

I worked for a chemical manufacturer a number of years ago. A line worker fell into a part of a chemical reactor that was practically 100% nitrogen (it kept the reaction from igniting). He was unconscious in a minute or so. Another employee went in to rescue him and managed to get him out to other workers. Unfortunately, while they were tending to the original worker, the rescuer passed out and died without ever making a sound. He just fell asleep and died.

Nitrogen Asphyxiation

Strap the condemned down, put on a brain wave monitor and a breathing mask. Put 1.1 atmospheres into the mask of 99% pure nitrogen (welding gas). Wait till the brain waves go flat.
