        It’s extremely hard to get the drugs and to find a medical professional willing to adminstrate them. Most drug companies specifically won’t sell to governments for this purpose. Most medical certification boards revoke licenses for engaging in this sort of thing.

        If we can’t abolish the death penalty I’d prefer the prosecutors and judge be the firing squad. Make it real obvious that this is a violent destructive act they’re taking from start to finish.

        As far as I know it’s mostly because of the appeals process and because of the drugs they use. Nobody wants to make them anymore.

        You know how much lawyers make in endless appeals? Who do you think pays for the state side of things?
