    Become ungovernable.

    Also, the lethal injection is no less cruel or painful than other forms of execution.

      It is actually more inhumane - since it’s formulated in a way to provide extreme pain. A simple chop to the head is more humane than that injection.

        execution methods are about the spectators. i think if you don’t have the constitution and courage of your convictions to watch someone thrash around and scream you shouldn’t be executing people.

      I don’t know, the Head Ripping Off Machine Ohio switched to seems pretty humane.
