Then dick around in OK, ID, UT.  The last time someone was downrange was in Utah January 26, 1996.  Mormons rock!

And hanging is still authorized in a few states too.

Cheers

Utah has changed it and eliminated firing squad as a choice for execution.  Any prisoners who had made that choice before the change would still be shot, but any new people on death row may not choose firing squad.  

I think that most states that have had these "wierd" methods of execution have changed to lethal injection.

eh if I ever end up on death row they will find me in my cell hanging from a sheet.  Why waste the time waiting for big brother to do it, just do it youself.

I recall your "do it yourself" attitude.

The nice thing about firing squad is they can still use the organs (except heart...which they're supposed to aim for).  Other than hanging, organs can't be used in modern executions.

Florida still has the electric chair, and it is optional, but it isn't ol' Sparky.  They replaced it with a newer electric chair.

By whatever method used it should be televised.  Put the "message" out, you will fry, fly, swing, or eat a bullet......if you do the crime this is what you will face.  That and it needs to be used more often.  Wuit releasing them and getting the repeat offenders.

My place of employment is putting one to sleep tonight.  He's a real nice guy, stomped an 80 something woman to death and then showed her how much he really cared by setting her body on fire.  I hope his future weather forecast involves fire and brimstone FOREVER!!!

I think that these wonderful paragons of society should be sentenced to "Life . . . married to a harridan shrew Jewish woman of arabic birth raised in Britain, cold-as-a-fish, with a mouth like a fish-wife who spends their days engaged in the most stereotypical womanly wife behavior."
