And bleeding hearts are worried about them suffering some mild discomfort.
Appealing your sentence to prove your innocence or you think the legal system fricked up or you think your lawyers fricked up is one thing, but I have to laugh my arse off at these killers freaking the frick out over being possibly uncomfortable when the drugs get a pumping. They sure as shite didn't make it comfortable for their victims when they killed them. You see what they did and I don't think anybody could have sympathy for them.

They should mix in a little Drano into the cocktail for these two.

It's not about sympathy, just being better than the people you're executing. They're still humans, as tempting and easy as it is to find excuses to treat them as something less; gratuitous pain should still be avoided where reasonably possible.
Of course, mild discomfort is a different matter from significant pain, and efficiency needn't be sacrificed in the name of avoiding it. I don't support the death penalty at all, but if it's still going to exist, then I see no reason why execution by hanging isn't acceptable. Done properly, it's instantaneous; there is no gratuitous suffering. It's not costly at all, and unlike shooting (which is the other method that comes to mind), all funeral options are still open, if the families of the condemned wish for one.
