How about making the condemned listen to Kamala Harris talk for an hour? Too cruel?

[hanamizu]

I think the German generals all asked for a firing squad. They were denied on the grounds that their crimes were civil rather than military. The American hangman, who apparently had no experience or expertise, hanged them so they strangled.

Lightning. If you hear the thunder. You don’t have to worry about the lightning.

[Bullish]

Rope is cheap.

[Basket_of_Deplorables]

I honestly don’t understand why they don’t just use CO, Carbon Monoxide, to execute people. No pain, takes 10 minutes, cheap, plentiful...take 8 breaths of CO and you die.

Zero pain, you just fall asleep in less than 2 minutes. And very, very permanent.

[T.B. Yoits]

Do it like it’s 1783.

[Political Junkie Too]

How about good-old-fashioned hypothermia?

Heh, I laughed when I saw that-that is real creativity on the part of that person who got that plate!

[DesertRhino]

Put em in a nitrogen chamber. Say goodnight Gracie..

[DesertRhino]

“The American hangman, who apparently had no experience or expertise, hanged them so they strangled.”

Yeah... lets go with that as the reason.

[ProtectOurFreedom]

Yes, I thought so, too! Very creative.

Strap them to a chair, keep their eyes and ears forced open, and make them watch MSNBC.

It will suck out every last one of their brain cells. Eventually, their vital systems will be unable to function.

Like Alzheimer’s on fast forward.

[Eccl 10:2]

It was Tom Jones, but yeah, that could be clever.

[_longranger81]

Darn. I make that mistake fairly often...

[zeugma]

The reason certain folk are still pushing things like the electric chair and firing squads is because they don't want the issue to go away. We know how to put criminals to death in a way that no sane person can object to.

Nitrogen will kill the scumbags quickly, efficiently, and painlessly. Anyone who has worked in industrial situations where you can have excess nitrogen build-up knows that it is a deadly and silent killer.

I just want the bastards to meet their maker. Nothing we can do to them in this world can compare to what God can do to them when they are dead.

[Gaffer]

Push it up to the SC supreme court and be done with leftist simps....

[sloanrb]

Helium is too expensive.

Nitrogen can be prepared on site with the right equipment.

[HartleyMBaldwin]

The amusement would be worth the cost of the helium, IMO. You could probably even recover most of it afterward and save it for the next execution.

Next up for the Democrat/Communist/Left, life imprisonment without the possibility of parole will be adjudged "cruel and unusual punishment" (which is arguably true).

Then again, to the Democrat/Communist/Left (including the vile, America/American-hating and retarded FJB), being held in solitary confinement for going on two years without being charged with anything is not "cruel and unusual punishment" as it serves the Democrat/Communist/Left's and FJB's political purposes.
