    Murder is still murder, no matter if it’s legalized.

    And an execution is a premeditated murder in cold blood, even a systemic one. It’s pretty much the worst kind of murder.

    And yes, every kind of murder is problematic. Using gas chambers just gives it the correct appearance: state sponsored serial murder.

        You seem to have no arguments for your opinion, otherwise why would you have to resort to personal attacks?

        These kinds of comments are usually the internet equivalent of a white flag.

          It isn’t an opinion, though, you are simply failing to follow the conversation. I said “the method itself”, which implies that I am comparing this method to other methods and NOT discussing whether or not capital punishment is ok.

            And you are not getting the point. Every method of killing people is terrible and inhumane. There is no humane way of killing people, because the very act of killing people is inhumane.

            The only humane method is one that doesn’t kill or harm people.

                  How is it ridiculous? If someone wants to end their own life, oxygen deprivation is possibly the most peaceful way to do so. In fact, many folks choose to end their lives with dignity by closing themselves in small “gas chambers” specifically designed for this purpose.
