Put them in an airtight room. Give them a 6 pack. Pump the air out.

Problem solved!

“Isn’t Ketamine available?”

Only for animals and kids, it can cause hallucinations in adults.

It’s late, I just realized we’re discussing a veterinary use.

Heroine, that’s the ticket.

Excellent idea. You should run for Governor.

And, I don’t even think they’d suffer, right?

Pretty much instant death if the dose is high enough, pure enough and you’ve got no tolerance.

Better than shooting them, I think.

Or, you could shoot them.

How long will we let the Left rule?

Not much longer, I hope.

Nitrogen Asphyxiation - cheap, pain free, no mess, no fuss. Hook up a breathing mask to a tank of Nitrogen. Turn on 1.1 atmospheres and wait till the brain waves stop.

These threads always bring out the worst in FReepers, and without reading a single reply, I’ll bet that this one is no exception.

Where are Jason, Michael Meyers and Freddie Kruger now that we need them?

Bullets are cheap. SO is cyanide. A mob of the victims’ families will do it for free.

Got electricity?
Got rope?

Let’s party!

Put them under anesthesia and cut ‘em open. Harvest organs, skins, bones, whatever physically useful and transplant-able and scientifically useful, then discard the corpse.

They could can Obama's speeches and use them as a death penalty drug: if put into action that's the effect on the body politic.

Load them with a massive dose of a benzodiazapime such as valium, xanax, etc. they will go to sleep. Follow with kcl and or succinylcholine. It would be painless and efficient.

I think you are a bit optimistic with the time though. 30 to 60 seconds? I can hold my breath for 90+ seconds ...or at least I could when I was in my 20s.

Correct but when you hold your breath after a deep breath the pressure (partial pressure of oxygen) is greater as the pressure in your lungs is greater than normal because you have a large volume of air in your lungs and are holding it. Thus you can remain conscious for a greater time than normal.

60 to 90 seconds of pure nitrogen will do the trick for unconsciousness but it must be continued for several minutes after to ensure death.

May I suggest..... several options to the idiots in the legislature.

Valium mix 1000 mg in 250 ml and start infusing as fast as your little heart desires. Then give 100 mg of Pavulon. Follow with regular insulin oh.... about 300 units should about do it, then KCL mix a bag of 200 meq in 100 ml of normal saline , hook it up to an infusion pump and check on the guy in about 12 hours.

or a guillotine ....quick and 100% effective.

third option is "dealers choice". the victim's family gets to chose the method of execution.

These toads make it seem so "scientific" and precise on the "exactly" correct drugs and ONLY those drugs can kill a person humanely. How about a rapid sequence intubation without intubating the patient. Just knock them out, paralyze them and see if they can hold their breath for an hour and a half. I've never seen anybody hold their breath that long.... but I'd be willing to try to give the fellows on death row an opportunity.

You can accomplish a change of the gas mix from normal atmosphere to pure nitrogen without a mask or the knowledge of the subject. The only clue is a light headed feeling as you pass out from insufficient oxygen. Totally odorless and tasteless. The standard cyanide gas chamber has a distinct odor and takes 3 to 13 minutes. The subject is aware of the effects and there is a toxic gas to clear before the body can be removed. The “holding your breath” to avoid the poison was usually an exercise in panic. That doesn’t occur with nitrogen.

Zap em. There’s an infinite supply of electricity available. No shortage, no waiting!

I think you guys are getting caught up in the details - the bigger issue here is that this is one of what I fear may be many examples to come of America being at the mercy of foreign countries to tell us what we can and can’t have, to dictate our “morals” by their own.

The sobering truth that we’re not a manufacturing power anymore - I remember a short while after 9/11 when there was a national discussion, after a biological weapons scare, about smallpox and how it would take 2+ years to innoculate the entire country because the vaccine was only manufactured in one country (or two at most), and it wasn’t on THIS side of the ocean.

“There’s an infinite supply of electricity available.”

Not if BHO keeps shutting down coal plants :-)

A mask with pure nitrogen will get the job done just fine.

I don't think that would be legal, because the law requires an injection. Perhaps nitogen bubbles could be injected.
