Check out the yt video ‘ the false evolution of execution methods ‘. If you want a humane method of execution, a firing squad does the job – but it looks bad. If all executions were carried out by firing squad, maybe the death penalty would be less popular. The lethal injection on the other hand is the opposite. It looks humane but is in reality just naked cruelty, and a lot of people like it because of that. So it appeases the two camps of people who support death penalties: those who want the person to die suffering, and those who don’t want to think about it.
