There's a heading on the BBC website.........
A judge in Alabama will decide if a new method of execution using pure nitrogen gas can be used for the first time.
Two other states are considering the method as an alternative to lethal injections, after a spate of botched executions in the US.
Aside from any personal views on the rights or wrongs of the death penalty, just how difficult can it be to efficiently execute a person?
The Germans didn't have a problem!!
If a 1200lb horse can be administered an injection that will instantly do the job, then why would a 220lb man be any more difficult.
If the concern is about a painless and instant death, then a bullet to the head would answer that without any doubt. If the job is going to be done, why make it any more difficult?
