If there is going to be death penalty, I am a “fan” (maybe that is not the correct word) of doing something like nitrogen.

That would be fun

Disclaimer - I'm not a huge fan of the death penalty.

But - what was wrong with the guillotine? Is it the mess aspect?

I dunno much about the chair - but I have to imagine there are a few moments of torture with that when it first turns on.

You could make a pretty fool-proof guillotine with modern tech.

Kinda bloody, though.

With the exception of a bit of feces and urine, bagging an electrocuted prisoner is pretty easy. And, they pay OT to do it (never understood why they liked to do executions at 0200).
