Perhaps pay for view.

Which gun of mass destruction will they choose?

Do those getting gunned down get to decide which weapon of mass destruction they prefer?

Will the gunned down get to smoke a cigarette before being gunned down?

I suppose more states will follow suit, I’m surprised Texas isn’t the 1st state to do this form of execution!
