The drug companies refuse to sell the correct drugs for capital punishment, and the states are using cocktails that are not doing the job. Nitrogen asphyxiation is painless and effective.

Go back to the firing squad, gallows, or guillotine.

Hanging, the very best method ever. It scares the bejesus out of bad guys too.

“Botched executions.” What a phrase. Are they dead? Then it was not botched. If they’re still alive, kill them. Sheesh.

How about CO2? It’s quick and effective. We also apparently have too much of it and it would help reduce it. Right? /s

I’ve supported this for a long time after reading about several workers who suffocated to death after walking into a silo that was filled with only nitrogen. They passed out within seconds.

Just turn them over, hog tied, to the families of their victims. The government doesn’t even have to be involved.

Why don't they just tie a cinder block to their feet, go out about 400 Yards off shore and kick them off the back of a Boat?

Geez, this isn't hard people.

Some more information:

I recall reading about some inspectors that went into the hold of a ship containing scrap steel. The rusting steel had removed all the Oxygen from the air. The inspectors never knew what hit them.

They should use the exact same method they use to euthanize strays at the shelter.

If it’d good enough for innocent animals, it’s good enough for killers.

An altitude chamber would work fine. No chemicals or drugs to buy. Take the subject up to 35,000 ft altitude, and he will be gone in no time. Quick, totally painless - euphoric, in fact.

Can still have viewing area for witnesses.

Helium is better. The pass out instantly, and the helium passes through the skin as well as through the lungs. Death is almost instantaneous.

Why not Scaphism? I heard it worked for the Persians, and resulted in very little crime throughout the empire.

I have had mild nitrogen narcosis while scuba diving at 120’. It was rather pleasant. If they're looking for a humane way to kill somebody they could do worse.

Not only would this be good but the condemned could make one last gesture of humanity and donate his or her organs.

I think if I were given my choice of how to be executed, I would choose the firing squad.

I saw the film of German “werewolves” executed during the Battle of the Bulge. They were tied to posts and immediately with the firing they were turned into rag dolls. Did not appear to suffer at all.

How about an endless loop of Hillary cackling audio?

Nah! That would be too painful.

Louisiana Department of Corrections Secretary James LeBlanc told a legislative committee last year that "nitrogen is the next big thing" and described it as a "painless way to go. <

Every time I see discussions on capital punishment and 'humane' ways to carry it out, I ask, why does it have to be painless?
