courtesy Utah Dept of Correctionsa few particulars from the manual: --some number of gunman, one randomly issued a blank -25-feet from a benchrest -aim for the heart -sandbags behind and a tub underneath to catch any "drainage" - three other death row inmates (of 9) have also selected this method of execution I guess the one point raised in the article that I tended to agree with was the fact that all the hand-wringing focuses the attention on the convict rather than the crime victim (which is probably why they're choosing it)

What's wrong with using a .50 caliber?

22 long rifle, mob style, very effective! 1 round is all you need.

Well, there's no sense in making a big deal about it.
Lock, load, shoot the [bleep]..
and move on.

You could say that... It would over penetrate the whole damn prison... It would be a good idea to have the other death row inmates clean up the mess...

I don't feel these condemned deserve such a honorable and romanticized death.

Rope, can be used multiple times, and doesn't cost very much at all.
