I don't think they know but when they fire the rifle they should be able to tell if I'm not mistaken.

I don't understand why they simply don't fill a gas chamber with nitrogen and use that method. The prisoner would suffocate after losing consciousness instantly.

Oh hell yeah. I get the super soaker though, filled with hydroflouric acid. Not sure the HF is super soaker compatible. About to go check that out. (Will be going to walmart on way to work. Update at lunch)

Or they could shove a grenade up his butt.

Or lock him in a room with a running engine.

Also good options.

Nitrogen method would be cheaper. Prisoner would drop like a sack of potatoes in an instant.

yeah , i don't have a lot of experience with rifles but, i always imagined it would have a different feel.

wasn't it kept a secret so that each member could deny killing the person or something like that?

Something along those lines. Think it was so each one couldn't be sure they did it for mental purposes.

Muriatic acid will run just fine in a super soaker. Just do not over pump!

We were cleaning a lot of metal furniture from Mexico and the sprayer tips kept corroding. Cheap dollar tree water guns leak. Supersoakers worked long enough to finish

I don't know if it has already been established, but I believe Utah uses five shooters and 1 shooter has a blank round.

This does kind of seem like a waste of what could be usable organs.

Something like that. On NPR yesterday, someone said that the last time Utah used the firing squad was 2010, and the individual was killed by 5 officers. I found it interesting how they worded that.

None of that thousands of dollars for an execution. That being said, I wish we would make sure the death penalty was for clear cut cases.


Fine, but lets make it within a few weeks of being sentenced as opposed to years and years of sitting on death row if there is no question of guilt.

good. This makes so much sense. People shouldn't go around shooting people. We shall fix this by shooting THEM.

BBC did a story on it. There is a room with a wall with slits in it. The shooters stand on the other side of the wall and fire through the slits.
