not when it's 500 Jews..... that's just plain genocide lol - Original answer

I don't know how that's funny. And it wasnt 500 it was often 10-15 thousand executed in gas chambers at a time. This was far from Humane much like watching a rhino being brought down by a dart. The most common gas was Hydrogen Cyanide which would kill upon contact with skin not lungs.
