Lethal injection, if done correctly.

an eye for an eye would make it so everyone only had one eye.  we could still function, not as well, but it'd work.
Yeah, Dilios had one eye and he's awesome!

Hypoxia through the use of nitrogen

Also, all cells on Death Row should be sealed tight so that the punishment can be performed at any given time.
Preferably when the prisoner sleeps.

Hopefully this will reduce stress and anxiety.

But then again, living in a cell that can kill you at any given moment would probably keep you on your toes anyway but...

Most humane, IMO, is lethal injection. But to be honest, we shouldn't be concerned with how humane an execution is when it comes to executing guilty criminals put on death row for a reason.

Null Vote.  If you really think about it, there really is no Humane way to kill another person, since the killing in and of itself is not a humane thing to do.

Personnally I think they should use a firing squad because not alot can go wrong then.
Dear God please let my karma one day reach 100, whether it be tomorrow or 1000 years in the future i want it to happen.

Well, quick and painless for the public... for the poor blindfolded schmoe with the cigarette hanging from his lips?  Perhaps less so....

Mind you, I am not saying it is a bad idea.  I am a big believer in public executions.  Grusome and bloody, and high school students should be forced to watch one a year until they graduate.  Just to remind them of concequences.

Force people in high school to watch people being killed?  Wow, that's brutal.

The real question is, why are people worried about being humane towards serial killers and rapists?

Because when you torture someone wrongly convicted and then find out they were innocent. It makes a few people a tad... Angry...

Shot in the head by firing squad. Instant death.

Although, if they can commit such offenses against the innocent public, then they deserve everything they fucking get.


OOoo, wait a minute. We dont kill our serial murderers. We pay for their food for the rest of their life. Good ole England

But if I were to be shot, I would want it in the heart. I don't want a splattered head for my funeral.

I believe it's only a few seconds is how long it would stay alive.

Lethal Injection. It doesn't cause the person any pain, and they slowly die.
Anything else is inhumane and unjust.

Please hurry up and decide which is the most humane way to execute murderers and serial killers, ( wishing to add rapists, multiple dangerous felons, child molesters) so I can make sure we don't use it.

It shouldn't cause pain. Every style of execution has been botched in the past, plus you've got the cut-down procedure that is apparently quite painful.

Note: Don't use needle drugs and then get on death row.
