Week 12, Day 1

1. My claim consists of exploring whether or not lethal injection is a more "humane" as an execution method in comparison to hanging, gas chambers, firing squad or electrocution.

a. Lethal injection is considered a less painful and quicker form of execution therefore classifying it as more humane.

b. I would look for statistics proving the success of lethal injection in recent years, the facts regarding why lethal injection is considered less painful and a general description of the process, I could also include interviews from individuals that witnessed several forms of execution which would serve as both examples and expert opinions.

c. Some of my information would come from library databases and other s from websites.

Lethal injection sounds more humane on paper. I think you will have a ton of work ahead of you. Your claim sounds like an interesting one. good Luck!
