If it's pure nitrogen it's as painless as it can get. Make sure there is no O2 in there, get rid of exhaled CO2. Simple. But still, your country should think about death sentences in general. If you think nitrogen is too inhumane just shoot them im the head with a shotgun from a close distance, that too should do the trick.
As long as we continue to do this, we should be forced to pull “execution duty” like we can pull jury duty.
Make people come in to press the button that kills the person.
Let’s see how people vote concerning capital punishment after that.
I'd rather pay a professional sociopath a fraction of the cost it would take to jail the inmate for life, to push that button.
Maybe I’m misinterpreting but you don’t seem to have any concern for mistakes in the justice system that incorrectly convict people and subsequently kill them.
Do I have that right?
No I do have that concern too.
I simultaneously also think reprehensible criminals that have been proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt should still be executed.
?
As if before now we didn’t think we were killing people we'd proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt?
I doubt the courts actually did that in the majority of those cases. There could be something said about the criteria used for who's eligible for execution.
For example some good candidates would be any number of mass shooters still alive in max security prison. These people have dozens of witnesses and security cam footage, and are beyond a reasonable doubt guilty and should be offed.
