Among the arguments is that this injection can be the cause of "pain."
Nope. Pentobarbital does not cause pain. It causes unconsciousness, and in sufficient doses, causes respiratory arrest.
I'm not defending capital punishment here, I'm simply pointing out that the arguments against this method are totally wrong.

Lee and the other plaintiffs argued that execution by firing squad could be considered an alternative that would "significantly reduce the risk of severe pain," pointing to studies that have shown a competent shooting causes near-instant death and firing squads have the lowest rate of "botched" executions of any method of execution conducted since 1900.

Having spoken with people and seen experiences of people who are gassed with nitrogen, that seems to be the most humane. From my understanding, there is absolutely no indication that anything is happening. One guy I know was in Indonesia working - went into a tower that had nitrogen. He told me that one moment, evenrthing was normal, and the next thing he knew, he woke up in a hospital in Singapore (where they airlifted him).
Fortunately, he recovered completely. A second guy went in after him when he collapsed, and he also collapsed. A third guy was smart enough to stick an air hose into the tower which saved both the guys lives.
(Kind of weird and creepy to talk about this, but seems like a pretty painless way to die)

Executions can (and did) continue after US Supreme Courts says it is okay

I've said this before, but if you're going to execute somebody you shouldn't dress it up to look like a medical procedure in order to make yourself feel better about what you're doing. You need to be honest about what is going on.

Way more people die of the flu every year, so I doubt it's having much of an impact.

Just stop it.
Do you mean me, or the executions?
I think he means both....
Just the executions, Phibes. Just the executions.
