They could just try not killing people.
Not that I disagree with your statement, but tbh using nitrogen is way more humane than what they use now. While I believe the death penalty should be done away with (with exceptions for very extreme cases), I think switching to a more humane method of executing someone is better than nothing.
yeah. im fully against the death penalty but if were gonna do it lets make it as humane as possible. rather odd that alabama is leading in this though. especially with how inhumane the alabama prison system is overall.
In full agreement. If the state is going to murder people, I’d rather it be in the least shitty way possible.
Still would rather the state not murder people

Honesty, this is going to be way way way more humane than lethal injection. I’d prefer the state not have the power to kill it’s citizens but if they are going to, I want it to be painless
Took the words out of my mouth.
I oppose the death penalty but if it’s happening regardless, then at least let’s be humane.

If a guy is being executed wrongfully and he’s certain there’s no hope for escape, pretty sure he’s not going to be excited by the idea of going through a painful hell as well just to prove a point.
I’m conflicted on this. I want the death penalty abolished, but also recognize that a more humane death lessens suffering.
What I don’t want is humane methods of execution being used to further normalize the killing of citizens through a flawed and biased judicial system.
I hope these humans methods are adopted, and that people keep pushing for executions to be abolished.
The second one is literally the goal so I wouldn’t hold your breath. Or do since it’s nitrogen.
Great BBC documentary about this from years ago: https://topdocumentaryfilms.com/kill-human-being/
Definitely shows this is the most humane way to kill people if you needed to.
However the tldw is that the suffering and painfulness of executions are basically the point for many. These sick fucks see it as punishment. “A painless death would not be justice”
Then we should skin them.
And people say the US doesnt innovate anymore.
Alabama, a state I wouldn’t even want to fly over for the chance that the plane could crash and I might survive.
Let him rot in prison.
ABOLISH CAPITAL PUNISHMENT!
Cheapest method is just throwing horrible criminals off a cliff.
I disagree. The cleanup costs might be high.
You’re right. Pig pen time.
Instead of inventing new methods to kill people, has anyone ever thought of, well, just not killing them?
This is a great guillotine replacement as well.
Gonna start telling rich people to breathe nitrogen
I think we should start calling it what it is: secular human sacrifice.
It’s Alabama. Are you sure about secular?
They should try nitrous oxide instead. Might creep out the spectators tho when the dude goes out laughing.
They could also use massive doses of morphine (or fentanyl these days), though they don’t because it’s too pleasant a way to go. If they’ve sentenced someone to death, presumably for some heinous crime, they don’t want to put them down like a beloved elderly Labrador.
Frankly, I don’t care how they leave, as long as they do.
Then be the change you wish to see in the world.
