An Alabama inmate would be the test subject for the “experimental” execution method of nitrogen hypoxia, his lawyers argued, as they asked judges to deny the state’s request to carry out his death sentence using the new method.
In a Friday court filing, attorneys for Kenneth Eugene Smith asked the Alabama Supreme Court to reject the state attorney general’s request to set an execution date for Smith using the proposed new execution method. Nitrogen gas is authorized as an execution method in three states but it has never been used to put an inmate to death.
Smith’s attorneys argued the state has disclosed little information about how nitrogen executions would work, releasing only a redacted copy of the proposed protocol.
There’s no way drowning is the way to do it… There’s a reason waterboarding is an “effective” means of torture.
Waterboarding isn’t drowning. It’s like mega drowning. Here’s one of many studies done on drowning that shows many people found it kind of calm as they neared death.

I offered proof that drowning is calm. You’ve claimed the opposite but haven’t proven it. So, prove it.

I live within walking distance of a beach, I swim.in the ocean plenty. Got any more dumb insults, or are you actually going to surprise me and attempt to prove your point?

I’ve done long distance ocean swimming before, not being able to see the shore is not that scary.
And it’s quite telling that you can’t provide any evidence to back your claim. I’ve provided proof, why can’t you?
