This bullshit about states not being able to get the drugs and that guy in AZ taking two hours to die, is ridiculous. I've had general anesthesia several times. I was out in seconds, and I know damn well the Anesthesiologist/Anesthetist could have offed me at will.
Hanging, electrocution, and the gas chamber, seem clumsy compared to injection. Of course the guillotine or bullet in the head are quick, but we seem to want a pristine body for some reason. Perhaps to head off the anti-execution people claiming barbarism. The months or years delay awaiting execution seem harsher than the execution itself.
Why do they sterilize the needles for lethal injections?
