You can't help but 'Go Godwin' when discussing gas chambers. Erich Bloodaxe BSN Apr 2015 #1

You put people in gas chambers and kill them, I don't know of any other group or event to compare you to but the Nazis during the Holocaust. Apparently that's not 'cruel and unusual' enough for Oklahoma.

Comparing N₂ hypoxia to nerve gas demonstrates some real ignorance. Sedation and N₂ hypoxia is just about the most humane way to die imaginable. It is the suicide of choice for many who need to end their own suffering. It is painless, does not produce panic, and certain.

I oppose the death penalty under all circumstances. But N₂ hypoxia is not inhumane by any stretch of the imagination.
