Man literally invented the electric chair entirely to showcase how bad going out this way is, and the psychopaths of the prison industrial complex wonder why people are becoming sceptical of the notion that the death penalty can be administered in any way that isn’t cruel and unusual.
The whole point of punitive death is to be cruel and unusual to the alleged transgressor, to offer their corpse as a blood sacrifice on the altar of sadistic vengeance to the victims or the next of kin thereof
Quick and painless execution was solved long ago. Shotgun from behind them. Like a light switch turning off. But it is rough on the guards.
The real problem is we keep finding innocent people on death row. People that SCOTUS can’t even hand waive away. Until recently anyways, SCOTUS just up and ruled that new evidence can’t be considered by federal courts. So now innocent people on Death Row are pretty much just relying on the good will of the governor.
So yeah, we know we’re killing innocent people and we refuse to stop.
Firing squads are often partially equipped with blanks so the shooters don’t know it was them. But then again, I’m pretty sure an experienced shooter could tell if it’s live or blank ammo from how the gun behaves. Idk tho never shot a gun my life.

Nitrogen gas is a no-brainer. But FFS drop the face mask and flood the room.
