It mystifies me why this state doesn't consider hanging. If it is done right, it is a humane method.
Hanging is very effective, but it's pretty much an imperfect art. A skinny guy needs more drop distance than a 3-400 lb fat guy... and even if you give the fat guy just enough momentun to snap his neck, his head may come off anyway.

I don't understand the big deal about execution drugs. Any local veterinarian can put down large animals, and (alledgedly) in a humane manner.

Anything that puts down a 12-1400 lb horse should certainly take out a human.

Not to mention the large quantity of street drugs that are just sitting in an evidence locker waiting to be destroyed. Use that crap for a useful purpose.
