1. Oklahoma doesn't see any problems with the optics of gas chambers to kill people? nt

At least, the ones who support the idea of death penalty - should be compelled to go to at least one excecution - where they are to se the whole prosess - from the prison cell - to the casket where the prisoner is resting - after been excecuted - they should know the whole prosess - not as a theoretical thing they write down at paper - but the whole, ugly prosess...

4. Those who led the vote for it in the legislature should be part of the process

including the governor. This is their way of proving how much of a tough guy they are. They should really have to show it.

8. Back when executions were public, they were very well attended.

I am already completely opposed to the death penalty. I would not attend one, nor would I vote for the death penalty were I on a jury. Of course, I'd probably be not allowed to serve on such a jury.

3. why not use Zyklon B; it has a proven track record

[Spitfire of ATJ]

6. Naw, too Jewish.

5. Rachel did a great job on this new way of killing people last night

[A Simple Game]

7. I have always been against the death penalty mainly because it is not reversible but

I have always wondered why they don't just use morphine.

Does anyone know?

[BobSmith4152]

10. No, and I've wondered the same thing. Or a large bottle of bourbon.

9. Plastic Bag

Why not just a plastic bag over the head with a rubber band around the neck? Works the same way (depriving of oxygen) and would be easier to keep on than a mask, not to mention extremely cheap. We have a long history of dead children to prove it works. Or just a pillow pressed to the face by a pro-death penalty executioner chosen from the state legislators.

I'm always amazed by who stupid people consider as smart people. This is the perfect example of the Dunning-Kuger effect. They think they are geniuses and are quite proud of themselves.

11. Would more people be willing to witness executions if they used helium?
