I'm not in favor of the death penalty, but it seems to me they make killing a guy way fucking harder than it needs to be. What's the big deal about using a specific, expensive drug cocktail (especially one that allegedly inflicts pain) when you can simply put them on a nice inexpensive IV drip of highly concentrated morphine and let 'em just drift away. Firing squad for fucks sake?!? So, maybe Washington state can bring back hanging (if they still have capital punishment). Hell, I think Louisiana still uses the gas chamber though last I heard it was being fought because it's a rather horrible way to die. Electric chair anyone?!? What the hell. Let's just set their feet in concrete and drop 'em in the pool.
