South Carolina just passed a law to allow condemned inmates to choose between firing squad or electric chair if chemicals are not available. (THIS IS NOT A THREAD ON THE MERITS OF THE DEATH PENALTY!)
Which method would you choose for your own execution? I would take the firing squad just because it is cooler, also historical precedent.
I think firing squad has less complications. I’d definitely go with that. I’m not into being electrocuted or feeling a painfully injection.
Definitely firing squad over electric chair.
Is the choice limited to just these two?
In South Carolina, yes. Why, do you have a preference?
I dunno, it seems that it’s an open ended question and wasn’t sure if @MikeN1’s question was limited to South Carolina. They don’t even give you the choice if they have the chemicals on hand.
Well, they wouldn’t be able to find a vein on me, so lethal injection is out of the question. I guess I’d go with firing squad. I heard that they pump you full of tranquilizers beforehand.
Maybe if you asked nicely they would cut you some slack.
Didn’t AQ get their beheadeeys high on hash? They all seemed placid. Not that I watched.
That said, fire away!
The guillotine would be my absolute first choice (fast and painless!), but unlikely to be offered because of the optics problem.
I’d prefer not to be in South Carolina.

Well, we don’t seem to have a choice here. It’s either the chair or the squad.
If we did, I’d go for a massive morphine overdose.
However, I’m not planning a capital crime in the near future, so this is pure conjecture.
With your current avatar, I suppose that could be called the Ozzy Osborne option.
guillotine
edit: dammit, the cow beat me to the gallows
It seems pretty nice! Not signing up for any executions, naturally.
Wouldn’t that technically be hanging?
Yeah, that’s sorta where I was gonna head to. The chair or firing squad look like a shit tonne of suffering.
Death by Snu Snu is where it is.

Heroin overdose… or

Death by Snu-Snu… squeezed to death at the point of climax by these thighs seems a pretty nice way to go. This has to be the most risque scene I’ve ever seen in a Bond movie.
Can the firing squad be the perpetrator’s ex-girl- or boyfriends, each with a minigun?
