“I think giving the convict a gun and locking him in his cell with some fairytail reading drag queens until he/she commits suicide would work nicely.”

How about enough rounds to take out the “queens” plus one.

“Not quite sure how a lethal injection can be bungled.”

1. Hippocratic oath prohibits medical professionals from administering it.....should be able to find some retired or just hobbyists that would pay to start the pump.....

2. Drug makers refuse to “certify” their drugs for human execution.....and the use of drugs used on cats,dogs, etc brings “howls” (pun intended) of inhumanity from the “never deathers.”

Just one botched up government and lawyers involved cluster rodeo....mixing impolite metaphors.

PATRIARCHAL SOLUTION: If guilty by jury of peers......or confessed....or by a fair judge.......turn him/her/it/? over to family(ies) of aggrieved for execution up to and including the same method(s) and lack of mercy used on their lost ones.

All assets and interests of the Perp, including previously bequeathed, revert to the victims’s family.

Allow family to auction off the right to execute Perp and or pay per view.....for partial recompense.

I get tired of all the touchy feely womanish beta male crap.

The would does not now predominately Western Civ because we were “nice” guys.....just civilized.....like the Romans.

I always liked this image of a painting from Parks and Recreation.

One pretty sure way of execution.

Would making a condemned prisoner read The New York Times until he chokes to death on his own vomit be considered cruel and unusual punishment?!?

Execute by the exact same method the scumbag used on their victims.

The money would never go to the national debt. It would fund some boondoggle social program.

What about old sparky?

I have a mod to make it water-cooled, if you want to clear the building quickly.

So true, it can only be explained by the lefts general hatred of the 2nd amendment. Cheap, nearly painless , tried and true they ban it for being cruel and inhumane?

I think Utah still uses it?

> They want horrible, botched executions so that everyone is disgusted and gives up on the idea of capital punishment.

Bingo. Nitrogen is easy, painless and drama free. Why be crueler than needed?

Try the Belgium euthanasia technique. Tie him down and put a pillow on his face. The RATs used this method on Scalia and it worked well.

I would think this is a very humane way to go for a death penalty.

“Not quite sure how a lethal injection can be bungled.”

Article: Last November, Mr. Smith spent hours strapped to a lethal-injection gurney as the execution team needled around in several locations to insert two intravenous lines without success, before calling off the execution
