For a long time we have had lawyers, judges and members of the Supreme Court discussing about the humanity or cruelty that the lethal injection carry when applied.
My point is: instead of wasting all that money in Court and involving professionals in taken a criminal out of the picture in our society, what is the problem with an inexpensive, reliable, painless, quick .22 caliber in the back of the head?
Call me names, insult me if you feel you have to..but think in the kind of guy that do not deserve any human consideration due to the crimes they commit. Did you heard that the last fellow put to sleep raped an k**led an 11 MONTH baby?Our Society is so hypocritical that try to look kind using all that sadistic ritual of using long processing pr********n of a series of injection that so far are doing nothing more than create controversy and a waste of tax payer money in the piece of cake that our law maker have creating for themselves

I once did a study on execution of humans and the method you describe was v**ed the quickest and least painful of all. Second was the Guillotine used by France until they banned executions and they said if they went back to executions, they would re-instate the Guillotine.

Personally, I am skeptical of the death sentence especially now that I read about prisoners that have spent many years in prison are being released since DNA procedures have found them innocent. It should be reserved for only the incorrigible, heinous individuals.

Oorah - I agree - Also (life in prison) tax dollars wasted on someone who has proven a monster - I think the reason for punishment and the justice line is not only blurred but extremely vague.

Hey, what about the poor criminals rights?
There are some who do not deserve to be out with normal people. I agree in some cases swift justice should be carried out. Some say the death penalty is not a deterrent to crime. At least that one criminal will not commit any more crimes.

I really advocate upgrading to a 38 special or 45 to the back of the head.

One must always remember that our criminal justice system is rooted in the conceptthat " It is better that 100 men go free thgan 1 man be convicted wrongly" Especially today with current technology many people judged to be guilty have in fact be proven innocent. I am opposed to the death penalty. Furthermore it is actually more expensive to excute some one than to improson him for life. Please pardon my many typos as my editing sk**ls are non existant

Least painful - execution by method of inmates choice, one they chose to use in crime, pain now equal.
DNA proof of both guilt/ innocence.
DNA Conviction of Felony auto surrender.
DNA all inmates who do not have DNA in data base test and enter. Will catch some in prison and close a lot of cold cases.
Inmate right - inmate choice -chose to forfate when committed crime.
Victim Rights: Obligation of society to prison correct person.

The reason we have prisions is to remove from our mist uncontrollable people - for some it is a way of life easier than being out.
When we increase the labor requirements & decrease the joys of life inside the threat of prision will work more efficiently.

Just hire Anton Chigurh and his compressed air machine. Quick and painless.

You may remember him from No Country for Old Men. Maybe the best villain of all time.

It is a fact. With the legal appeal process and legal fees of the accused paid for by the state he is correct. That is the reason I am against the death penalty also, it costs much more that life without possibility of parole.
