A good sharp sword or guillotine or bullet would be better I think.
I wonder what is Humane?

Rather than getting into a philosophical argument, I'd like to use, in this context, the most practical definition available, which for me is the method least likely to cause a convict's head to fly off into the audience.
All types of execution's from the old to the new will always be some what botched in the end. This is becaused humans are doing the executions.

My previous point still stands.
I might be in My Medieval phase. But has there ever been any good way to execute anybody not really. After linking to Callaway article it shows executions that get botched up time and again. We try to be humane while doing it but is it humane that was the question that I was asking. Not trying to be Philosophical about it. There is not truly yet a way to execute somebody today and be truly humane while doing I believe. I most of the Western World it is looked down upon and yet We still do it as a World no matter what the custom from one part to the other part of the world that We Humans Live in any part of this World. Would not the swiftest way be the best way.

I remember a person taking blood from Me He could not even find My veins it was ten minutes of hell.



Well, there's no good way to kill people, of course. But since we do it anyway, might as well pick the better option, and since nobody seems to complain much about the same process being used on stray animals, lethal injection seems like the lesser of multiple evils. Maybe if I start hearing about mini-electric chairs in Humane Societies I might change my mind on that.
That is why a good sharp sword guillotine or bullet would be better for it is the quickest. Take the last one it even faster than lethal injection.

That might be more Humane.

The problem is that the head seems
aware, at times. Troublesome. But,
death hurts.

Yeah, people debate about it constantly, but that's true of any method, definitely not excluding beheadings and firearms... As if the fact that we can't kill perfectly is a sufficient argument against the death penalty. All things considered, any method is less hazardous than subjecting a person to the prison system.

I am in favour of the death penalty. It should be brought back in Australia. Better than having murderers and such studying for a uni degree.

I believe there is just too much room for error.  Last year in my state they released someone after they had served more than ten years on their sentence he was innocent how do repay him for the time he spent in jail.  Now just think if he was dead how could you repay his family

Many of these convictions are based on confessions that police bully out of defendants or planted evidence.

In the cases where ther's solid forensic evidence, I'm all for letting 'em fry.

How can one tell planted evidence from
the real thing? When the police are out
to get you, you're likely screwed.

Ex-narcotics detectives admit to planting drugs, lying in report
By: William Kaempffer, Register Staff

Two former New Haven narcotics detectives stood in court Friday, hours apart, and raised their right hands like they had many times before, but this time they weren't on the witness stand.

Instead, Justen Kasperzyk, 35, pleaded guilty to planting drugs during a 2006 raid and Jose R. Silva, 36, to knowing about it and lying in a police report. Both face jail time when they are sentenced Jan. 4.

Mayor John DeStefano Jr. described their conduct as nothing short of "despicable" and not representative of the 400-plus officers on the city force.

The two pleas are the first in the 15-month federal corruption case into the department's narcotics enforcement unit. Charges are still pending against the headline defendant, former Lt. William "Billy" White, the one-time head of the unit and 39-year member of the force, and three bail bondsmen who allegedly paid cops tens-of-thousands of dollars in kickbacks for capturing fugitives who jumped bond.

How many more don't get caught
