Nah, just more dead people.

Actually there are a number of concerns around lethal injection, how it is administered and the cocktail mix. There is the possibility that the dose of thiopental is too low to cause unconsciousness for long trapping the person in a stationary body. So while the firing squad looks more violent, it may actually be an easier way to go.
