I agree 100%. I'm serious, too.
I don't even think lethal injection is that much of a deterrent because of how painless it is.
Hell, the first injection is 5000 mg of pentothol.. 100-150 mg is typically used in surgery, so you know the person is OUT. I think 5000mg is even lethal itself. In any case, he felt nothing and didn't know what hit him.
The only pain he felt was the psychological effect of, "in 30 minutes, you'll be dead."
"Well, I won't even know I'll be dying, so I guess it doesn't matter." doesn't seem like much of a deterrent for me. If I REALLY wanted to kill someone, was willing to deal with the consequences, and all I had to face was lethal injection, that'd be cake. On the other hand if I had a more... nasty way of dying, such as electrocution... screw that. I'd skip the crime.
