I have a nuanced view of the death penalty. I think it is used far too often, and often for the wrong reasons. It should probably only be used a handful of times in an entire decade, and only for the most heinous crimes like child rape/murder, serial killers, mass murderers, etc., and only when the evidence is absolutely incontrovertible.
That said, I want the execution to be as humane, quick, and as efficient as possible, and nitrogen asphyxiation will do that, when handled properly.
