And having said that, I have no idea why we don’t OD prisoners on opiates. Seems like a no-brainer.
The same reason lethal injection is so difficult. We know exactly what drugs to use. They are used on pets and animals all the time. The trouble is procuring them for the death penalty. Companies don’t want the stigma of supplying this drugs for that purpose.
Also really amazed there’s only 2 comments about nitrogen. The sensor thing is spot on. Very humane.
