There are a lot of ways to execute someone. Currently lethal injection is the most popular way to do it in America, but some people think that other methods  should be used instead. What is your favorite method of execution?

Firing squad.

Smooshing the condemned under a steamroller is my second favorite method. Remember, like what they did to Judge Doom (Christopher Lloyd) in Who Framed Roger Rabbit? only using a much bigger steamroller.

Absolutely. Voted Lethal Injection; it seems relatively humane and not unnecessarily drawn out or painful, which can’t be said for the alternatives (all of which seem quite inhumane, drawn out, torturous and/or archaic).

It’s the least gruesome, but the guillotine is quicker.  As an opponent of capital punishment, another reason to prefer the guillotine over the others is because it’s so bloody, so maybe support would decline faster.  Lethal injection is clean, and that’s why many death penalty proponents favor it, as it is the least controversial.  That doesn’t mean it’s the most painless for the condemned.

The guillotine is absolutely the most humane and I'm kind of confused as how people are coming to the conclusion that it's lethal injection? That seems like such a horrific way to go

The firing squad lets you die on your feet, at least.

BRTD keeps going on about how emo was invented in DC, so that sounds like some pretty bad capital punishment.

All of the above simultaneously. Lethsl injection immediately followed by being Hung in an electric chair dropping into a roaring fire of poisonous gas while being shot

Not sure how to fit in the guillotine though.

More like how is he not a mod?

I'm assuming you're one of the two votes for gas chamber, who do you think the other one is?

Reading olawakandi's posting history, but I don't think torture before death is permitted any longer.

Why can't we knock people out and then kill them by slowly replacing the oxygen in the air?

Yeah, I'm surprised so many are answering this question seriously. This is kind of a f***ed up poll.
