There’s plenty of fentanyl around. Use that for something useful
Nitrogen or carbon monoxide. Both painless and effective.
So in a state overflowing with deadly illegal drugs, they can't find any to kill someone? Fentanyl kills people every day in South Carolina. The willing victims dose up, fall asleep, and die. I wonder what the problem is?
Fentanyl kills big bucks like George Floyd on a daily basis. Fentanyl is built Ram Tough, and can handle the toughest jobs. And veterinarians have a supply of drugs to put down animals every day of the week. If what veterinarians do were cruel, the animal worshipers from PETA would let you know.
Criminals don’t deserve the honor of a firing squad. Hang them.
There’s an easy solution. The suppliers can just start selling the state their painless nighty-night drugs again.
Remember when used in assisted suicide the drugs cause no pain and result in a peaceful and dignified death. When used in lethal injection they cause horrible unimaginable pain.
“evolving standards”. Horsechit.
Bullets work. Ropes work. The electric chair works. They are all cheap and get the job done quickly and efficiently. That’s all that matters.
Its up to the legislature to determine what the community standard is - not some unelected judge.
Unfortunately I had to have 2 beloved dogs put down this past year. No pain and quick. Very easy for the pets. Very difficult for me and my family.
What are they putting in criminals that makes it otherwise?
An atmosphere of pure nitrogen will kill you quickly without pain. Every breath we take is already mostly nitrogen so it is the lack of oxygen which results in death.
Well obviously, the solution is to suspend all executions.
(I despise these jackasses. Is electric chair legal? Ask the old folks. Good God.)
Should let the condemned choose their method of execution.
I think I would pick the firing squad.
Looks like to me, 6 men with 22s would be the best. OR, even one man to push a button firing 6 22s at once.
Cheap, quick, and sure.
Bring back public gallows.
Too bad ammunition is so expensive because and electric chair firing squad combo would seem pefect.
They have to dispose of the carcass anyway so throw the puke in a casket alive

Translation: Execution by fad is demanded
Meanwhile defense attorneys enrich themselves by erecting meaningless stumble blocks. There must be an end to the lawyerly tyranny prohibiting the execution of convicted criminals. There should be only one appeal within 90 days and certainly less than 180 days.
Addendum: In addition to the defense lawyers, all prosecution lawyers and judges and presstitutes benefit financially from the prolongation of the execution of the death warrant
How ‘bout the guillotine?
Worked fine for the French.
Rope - tree/lamppost - tall stool ... components that are almost always available.
Effective, inexpensive, bloodless, no drugs needed ...
Missouri executed a he/she the other night. Another convict scheduled to be put down next month. They use 3 types of meds. Sodium Thiopental is number one. Not sure why some states claim they can’t get this stuff.
With all the fentanyl the police seize every week, why not use it for lethal injection. I hear it isn’t painful and far less than a gram is fatal.
