I think the condemned person is given an anaesthetic to put them in a deep sleep, then a second drug is used to paralyse the old muscles and then a third, potassium chloride I believe, stops the heart. Apparently there has been many cases which they have discovered after the execution in autopsies that the criminal hasn't been given enough anaesthetic and have felt the pain.

Just bring back the guillotine and public executions.

this is not necessarily my personal view, but merely a question to the above response... since when did killing anybody for any reason what-so-ever become humane? people are not puppies at the Pound....

Is "Capitol Punishment" to do with the EMI-owned record label of the same name? If so, I agree with you entirely.
