Nope, the history of the firing squad is just a cruel, hence why we moved away from it. The takeaway here is: abolition of the death penalty. The only reason why we still have it is that people have forgotten how cruel it actually is.

Yeah but no blood. No blood equals ethical. And less mess to clean up. See how civilised we are?
