Getting the drugs used for lethal injection has become nearly impossible. So how is a state supposed to carry out executions? Looks like SC opted for firing squads. As barbaric as that may seem, it’s a fairly humane way to off someone. There’s doubts to whether lethal injection is painless, but firing squad leaves no doubt. Instant, painless death. Same with the guillotine, which was why it was invented. Lethal injection is probably only less painful for those watching, anyway, so who are we concerned about here? Those who watch a painless but somewhat gory death?

BTW, I’m opposed to the death penalty.
