IMO trying to make execution humane is kinda pointless. It is really just done to ease the guilt of those who participate and watch in it. If you participate in killing someone, you should feel guilty. That applies equally no matter if your carrying out a state-sanctioned murder or a street murder.

If you participate in killing someone, you ~~should feel~~are literally guilty.

I mean, that's what the word means.
