No, generally they don't. However, with the current arguments about lethal injections being cruel and unusual punishment, they likely will go back to hanging. Worked before.

An inmate only has a choice if that particular state carries out executions in more than one way.

interesting question. i am going to't truly answer it on condition that i'm no longer a professional-lifer. i imagine some different interesting questions are: What if a pregnant mom changed into sentenced to lack of life, could you wait till she had the toddler and then execute her? What if a fetus murdered its twin in utero? it isn't going yet i'm confident it has occurred. i imagine maximum conservatives could probable say that the fetus is possibility free even if the guy who dedicated the crime isn't. they could probable help executing the mummy after the toddler changed into born and then putting it up for adoption. and they could probable no longer prosecute the murderous fetus. As you will locate, it truly is puzzling to construct an ethical predicament for those human beings. even as some religions like Catholicism help existence in all its varieties - accountable and not in any respect accountable - there is not any longer some logical inconsistency in conservatives who oppose abortion yet help capital punishments, on condition that there is not any "logical" foundation for plenty of those subject matters (on both area).

Not in Huntsville, Tx. you don't get to choose anything. It's all lethal injection here. They put "ol' sparky" away awhile back and that chair hasn't returned. Although a firing squad might do some persons who actually deserve it some good. How about the gullotine? Could we open that subject up?

NO
MOST STATES HAVE A LETHAL INJECTION IN PLACE.
A FEW HAVE THE FIRING SQUAD AND ELECTRIC CHAIR WAS LAST USED IN ALABAMA-THE LAST STATE IN 89.
MANY PSYCHOLOGISTS WOULD FILE FOR YOU AS BEING NUTS IF YOU CHOSE ANYTHING OTHER THEN LETHAL INJECTION.
COURT CASE ON DEATH PENALTY AND LETHAL INJECTION IN ALABAMA AS TO CONSTITUTIONALITY OF IT AS CRUEL AND UNUSUAL PUNISHMENT

Yea, I chose lethal injection. I asked if they allowed suicide bombing. I hear there are 100 virgins waiting and all you can eat lamb.
