I wish I hadn't read this, but using nitrogen is the same as CO2 or literally anything gaseous without oxygen: it is an agonising death. It is basically death by suffocation: prolonged, hideous. I don't know how anyone was allowed to even try this as "experimental"

This report from tonight’s execution in Alabama using an experimental method suggests it was an agonizing and prolonged ordeal. www.al.com/news/birming...

Witnesses saw Smith struggle as the gas began flowing into the mask that covered his entire face. He began writhing and thrashing for approximately two to four minutes, followed by around five minutes of heavy breathing. At 8:07 p.m. a correctional officer leaned over the gurney and closely examined Smith’s face before walking back to his position against the wall. Smith’s time of death was 8:25 p.m., according to the state.

I thought the danger of CO is that your body can't tell it's suffocating, because all we "feel" is an excess of CO2, and not a lack of oxygen. As in, CO2 is different in that regard? Not trolling, honest question.

Abolish the death penalty. Punish all who participate in such a travesty. This is obscene.
