 I tend to think this is kinda barbaric

Because you're a woman, men don't think that

Why waste the time and money of all this? Smack the dude over the head and drop him in a hole in the ground.

 I sat in old sparky at Louisiana State Penitentiary in Angola where over ninety people were executed. It’s in the museum at the entrance. The director told me a bunch of the history of the chair and who got cooked in it. I asked him if I could sit in it and if would take a picture of it. He said he’s not supposed to but let’s do this fast. Not the way I wanna go. Was a creepy as hell experience.

And the reason the inmate is hooded is that firing squad members couldn't handle the "victim" looking at them and were haunted by it afterwards.

Just hire a couple of "Gang Bangers" from LA.  They would look the perp straight in the eye and pop 5-6 caps into him with no remorse.

I've been home sick all week and that me laugh so hard, it sent me into a coughing fit.  Well done.

Or in the alternative, some MAGA folks who are NRA members (there would so many volunteers, you would probably have to hold a lottery to see who makes the squad).

That too. Need to hire people who want to do it.

Or make it easier and just give the perps a heavy dose of Fentanyl

Life in prison no parole.  Cheaper, no innocents die, more families don't lose members, avoid State-sanctioned killing, more ethical/merciful... etc.

"Nah, spend our tax dollars to kill him - it's worth it. Shoot him in the face and make him suffer. Watch his family grieve. The government should execute citizens like most third-world countries do."   :rolleyes:

Yeah. Spend tax dollars housing and feeding and giving the murderer free medical. Brilliant idea. :doh:

It would be cheap as hell to kill him if they just dumped him in a hole in the ground and shoveled dirt on him. Even timmy could afford to hire a couple illegals for a half hour to do that.

Just a few hours away.  Looks like all the ammo will be live ammunition:

Quote

 

If a reprieve doesn’t come, 67-year-old Sigmon will be strapped to a chair at 6 p.m. in the state’s death chamber, facing a rectangular hole in the wall 15 feet away.

After the warden announces the execution order, three volunteer corrections officers will shoot through that opening, aiming for a target placed over Sigmon’s heart.

All three rifles will be loaded with live ammunition. The agency will use .308 Winchester 110 grain TAP URBAN ammo, a fragmented bullet that causes a more “instantaneous” death, officials previously told the state Supreme Court.

They should have just put this on Clinton's list. 

He simply would have "hanged himself" in his cell. So much easier.

I wasn’t really concerned with what he wants. I don’t think he should have a say about that. 

This is one of the few times I agree with you

Oof. Sounds like the worst way to go, IMO. 

But if he chose it.... 

I figure it is not close to the worst way to go. Too quick to compete with thousands of slow painful ways to go.

Electric chair would suck. 

Tied to and hanging on a cross with nails in your hands and feet and picked at by birds while you die slowly would suck. 

Being captured by the Cambodians during the Viet Nam war and dying in a cage lowered down into disgusting sewage water would suck.

Way worse than a firing squad, no?

Shoot me dead at close range if you must, but definitely don't tie me up with attached weights and throw me into a pool to suffocate under water.
