‘I’m not ready, brother’: US man to be put to death months after botched execution attempt
theguardian.com
Kenneth Smith, 58, is facing execution by an untested method that has never before been used in capital punishment in the US. It’s a technique that has been rejected on ethical grounds by veterinarians for the euthanasia of most animals other than pigs: death by nitrogen gas.

And I said they are different procedures. Someone intending to die in a pod is not the same as attempting to force someone to die strapping a mask to their face.
A person in a suicide pod is cooperating with the process not biting and scratching for precious life, potentially causing oxygen to leak into the mask and cause excruciating suffering.
I am not saying it is immoral to kill prisoners so you shouldn't use this method (although I say now it is immoral to kill prisoners and you shouldn't ever do it by this or any other method).
I am saying this method does not work for executions and you can't use it for its intended end.
The fastest and least painful method for executions would be caliber 50 into the head, it would be the cheapest one as well.
But as said, im against executions in general unless its for corrupt politicians.
