esigner of the electrocution machinery, gave his opinion on the cons of the electric chair: "If you overload an individual's body with current... You'll cook the meat on his body. It's like the meat on an overcooked chicken. If you grab the arm, the flesh will fallright off in your hands.. That doesn't mean that he felt anything. It simply means that it'scosmetically not the thing to do. Presumably the state will return the remains to the victim's family for burial. Returning somebody who has been cooked would be in poor taste. This would affect the victim's family. Even if they chose not to watch the execution, the remains can be just as emotionally harmful. In the example that I started earlier, you can gather that is would not be pleasant to see your son or daughter executed numerous times or shocked a number of times. As you can see from the above arguments there are many paths you could take as far as if the death penalty is humane or not. As an over all out come of this paper I think that lethal injection is the most humane form of execution. The reason for this is it is really hard to botch this type of execution but the others such as electrocution and hanging can be botched quite easily. Although over all I think that the death penalty is a bad solution to this problem, the idea of two wrongs don't make a right comes into play in this case quite stongly, if it is really needed then I would have to say that lethal injection is the most humane form of execution. Although it is humane, I don't think I would be able to go through with actually being executed or executing someone....
