    When I read of this method in the past I imagined a gas chamber filled with nitrogen, not a shitty face mask and a nitrogen canister. I thought the prisoner wouldn’t know when they switched on the nitrogen and that they would fall asleep. A mask seems so cheap and what would they do if he vomited? It probably leaked which is why it took over 30 minutes to execute him.
