TranscriptAlabama suffocated a man to death in a gas chamber tonight after starving him so he wouldn't choke on his own vomit as they did it. And this was deemed perfectly legal by multiple courts in the vaunted American legal system.

That's what happens when you value institutions over people.

Probably the most painless, foolproof method would be an explosive, just strong enough to turn the entire head into a fine mist, placed right at the base of the neck. The explosion propagates faster than neutron activation can happen, so by the time it would be possible to feel anything, the brain no longer exists.

You're right. And you also probably meant NEURON activity ๐Ÿ˜‰

Haha. Yes I did. Though if it would help, I also wouldn't object to reversing the polarity of the neutron flow. ๐Ÿ˜

Agreed, that sounds the most foolproof.
