    Is Ohio deliberately trying to enact a process that will be blocked my the courts? A drug that stops the heart is doing it the hard way. Nitrous oxide or argon gas are both non-toxic, readily available, and work by asphyxiation. The prisoner just passes out, after a few minutes they're dead.

    Do it right, Ohio. Show the country how to do it.

    Death, it seems, is unconstitutional.

    its all about how much pain in percentages of the murder , they what to get down to zero pain now, its a imposable task, so that is how they are making the states stop it.
    Texas does care its still on for tonight

    Just give the prisoner to the family of the victim, along with some baseball bats. There's no need for the state to get involved.

    Aw, treat them like livestock a shock to the head and a saw to the neck.

    That's one way to get rid of someone you don't need anymore.

    Nothing wrong with being kind to murderous criminals who torture innocent people or rape and kill your grandmother for the ring on her finger. Let 'em die peacefully it's better than they deserve and doesn't cost much.

    This crap with having to be "humane" to murders, rapists, and homosexual pedophiles has gotten out of hand. When good old fashioned hanging was used the social liberals cried about the rope burns the murderers got as being cruel. So now drugs to kill the Turds is i humane. Then let's go back to old fashion rapid injection of lead with multiple entry points, with exit points an optional benefit but not a requirement.

    It's like complaining about the rope burns the prisoners got while we hang the bastard for murder.

    This shows how righties could care less about limited government. They first of all want to give the government power over life and death.

    Righties are more about authoritarianism, retribution, control, and revenge, than liberty.

    Don't be an animal. Evolve. Never give a government the power to execute its own people.

    Wonder why they do not use Propofol as the first drug.

    I have to have an endoscopy each year...and that is what they use to put me to sleep.

    Doctor says, "Okay, I'm gonna put you to sleep now."

    I reply, "Thannnnk....."

    Next thing I hear is the recovery room nurse saying, "Frank, Frank...time to wake up."

    The doctor coulda cut my balls off with a chainsaw...and I would not have felt a thing.

    Good, then they can join the list of evil people in your sig. Extra-judicial revenge murder is evil, and they will die for committing it also. Is that what Republicans call a 'win-win'?

    What I said was hyperbole. But it's better than having someone on death row for 25 years of appeals.

    When people are murdered violently it seems as if revenge torture/death fantasies are often expressed. I understand the anger behind it but what good would they if they were actually carried out? It's not going to bring the murdered love one back. Would it make you feel better? Maybe you might feel good for about five seconds to let some rage out but how is it going to help you cope with your loss and move on with your life? I think it would most likely make things worse. Better to let the justice system deal with them and try to find peace on your own terms.

    If (God forbid) one of my relatives were murdered and I was given three options:

    1) life in prison for the murderer, with TV's and excercise rooms
    2) the death penalty, after 25 years of appeals
    3) the death penalty soon after conviction, with me pushing the button or flipping the switch

    I would choose #3.

    I don't understand why they don't just give you a 00 buckshot 12ga shell to the forehead. I'm confident that there is no possibility of surviving that, and it's as instantaneous as it gets.

    If I was on death row it'd be what I'd want.

    Works great in liberal Chicago where the people have the power to execute each other with malice and aforethought, right?. The government always has power over life and death, visa vie military (whose job is to destroy people and things) and police. That's why government should be limited. I know those are hard concepts for liberals: give government the power to kill and put limits on that power.

    Because we get it from the EU that would limit its availability if we started using it for lethal injection and that limitation would keep them from having it for medical patients. The Europeans are kind of why states are in this mess to begin with. They could always do like Virginia did recently in an execution and just refuse to disclose what drugs were being used.

    Nope, there just has to be due process

    ""No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury . . . ; nor shall any person be subject for the same offense to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; . . . nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law. . . .""
