[QUOTE="cmhbob, post: 2502522, member: 20220"] If we're still going to encourage The State to kill people given the error rate of capital punishment, let's make it simple, easy, and quick: nitrogen asphyxiation. It requires no special training, like marksmanship, or skills, like correctly setting the drop for hanging based on the condemned person's weight. There are no risks of fire, like with the electric chair. You simply put someone in an airtight chamber, pump out the oxygen, and replace it with nitrogen. Much less of a risk than cyanide gas. Once the execution is complete (verified with external cardiac monitoring), you open teh chamber door, letting the outside air rush in. There's no need to vent a toxic gas to the atmosphere. [/QUOTE]
