But for some, it is necessary. This is one of those cases.

Id rather have firing squad then lethal injection

Fair point. Death by firing squad is more humane.

Agree - but it "feels" less humane so we give someone "sleep medicine" to make ourselves feel better about everything

Yep. Not even realizing that lethal injection can be anything but humane.

I've wondered why we don't sedate people and then execute them. That seems the most humane method.
