    Don’t have a death penalty but if you do, just blast them full of fucking morphine. Like, we have how to go put feeling pretty absolutelynfucking down. Like, when it’s my time, if I have the ability to do so and am dying anyway I wanna make fucking sure it’d from an opiate overdose. If you’re gonna exit, it’s probably the best way to go. Death sucks but going out not only painlessly but on a high note brainwiaw seems nice and I know frome experience having my blood replaced with morphine is the a guarantee of that

      The definition of a “humane” death for these ghouls isn’t “kills quickly and painlessly” it’s “looks like it does to observers”. Obviously the most humane way of killing someone is hitting them with a 200 ton block of stone accelerated to well above terminal velocity. But no one wants to clean up the mess.

      Giving someone a morphine overdose might cause the person to throw up and that’s gooey so it wont be done.

        I think the possibility that it might actually be pleasurable–even if only for a few seconds–also puts us off of it. Two of the stated purposes of the death penalty in the United States are deterrence and punishment. A method that has the potential to feel good for the condemned wouldn’t satisfy the bloodthirsty hogs enough. There are a lot of people who would bring back drawing and quartering, if given the option.

      As someone else posted itt, the problem is that the people involved in executions are not doctors and many times mess up injecting anesthesiacs.
