Related: About this forumThe Onion: Executioner Enters Lethal Injection Room With Bag From Home Depot
http://www.theonion.com/articles/executioner-enters-lethal-injection-room-with-bag,36546/ Thisll be the first time Im going with drain cleaner instead of bleach, so Im really curious about how the guys going to react. Ill kind of mix this stuff together and fill up a syringe with it and well be good to go. I think 50 CCs seems about right. Callahan added that in the event the toxic concoction failed to kill the prisoner, he could always make a second trip to Home Depot and be back at the execution chamber in half an hour.
So close to the truth...

Five-gallon bucket.
One gallon bleach.
One gallon ammonia.
One gallon muriatic acid.
One gallon Drano.
Pour the four liquids into the bucket, shut the door, evacuate the entire prison, and call the nearest Army Chemical Corps unit because they're the only ones equipped to deal with the disaster you created. No injections needed. Not even cockroaches will survive these fumes.

New rule: if the guy isn't dead within 15 minutes, or if he shows any signs of suffering, he must be shot dead with a large-caliber handgun.
