you know when they are doing capital punishment? it seems so out of date now along with guillitine, hung, and standing before a firing squad, i think injection is more humane.

u know in the movies where there is a man of the cloth that comes to say the last prayers, it looks like a catholic priest all the timel, but what if the person is not a catholic? what if they are protestant, they dont believe that it is necessary to say the lords prayer before death or whatever do they?

both gas chamber and lethal injection

you could even perform lethal injection without injecting anything at all but air.
alot of euthanasia cases involve nurses injecting air straight to people's main blood vessels.

QUOTE (http://www.peacelink.de/keyword/Hanging.php)
The most recent hanging in the United States was Billy Bailey in Delaware on January 25, 1996. Delaware has since obsoleted hanging. It is still legal only in Washington, where it was last used it on Charles Campbell on May 27, 1994. Washington law was amended in 1996 to make lethal injection the default death penalty when the defendant does not make a choice between it and hanging.
