Would you love to see a man executed?

Question

Which would be better to see: hanging or firing squad?

Or a beheading?

A man duly convicted of a capital crime!

Answer 1

Convicting an innocent man in these modern times would impossible. DNA can not be fooled! So that argument is ludicrous. However, the criminal mind doesn't allow for logical thought, so a murderer will alway kill thinking he will not be caught no matter what the consequences are. Public executions do not prevent future murders or child molestations or anything else!

Answer 2

While I can't say I would love to see someone die, I can't deny that I wouldn't take some pleasure in seeing justice done. The rage that fills me when I hear of some atrocious crime, like a rape/murder, won't rest until I know the worthless SOB is dead. Often times it goes unsatiated, and if anything would poison my mind, that would be it. Some people might call it sick and mentally ill, but I call it harsh neccessity.

Second question: the firing squad. It would be instantanious, and far more effective than hanging.

Answer 3

I would not like to see a person executed. Until recent times, people were executed in public, and such public executions often drew crowds revelling in celebratory spirit, with children and packed picnic baskets. It was quite macabre. The rowdy displays were disgusting. On the other hand, executions undertaken in modern times hides the brutality from the public. If more people were aware of the behind-the-scenes machinations of executions, there might be a public outcry to halt state-sanctioned murder. So many innocent people have been found guilty, it's atrocious. If we can't count on the government to carry out minor tasks like logical handling of DMV duties or large-scale catastrophes, why should government be trusted to take human life. Isn't it a contradiction to make murder illegal, and then to allow the state to commit the same.

Answer 4

I think beheading, would straighten up all the thugs, dumbasses, and anarchist. Sadly most people now a day are to spineless and use to the warless enviroment. The beheading would lead america to most likely a violent but powerful government

Answer 5

Do you honestly think it would do anything other than screw up your mind? I don't disagree with limited use of capital punishment. Sometimes you just need to take out the trash, but anyone that would thirst for it is most definitely mentally ill.

Answer 6

Only if they had killed someone in my family. And even then, maybe not. To me a more justified punishment would be let the guy rot in prison and be terrified every single day of his existance of the "big guy who wants to be his girlfriend". To me...that would be much much better.

Answer 7

although it wouldn't b on my preferred viewing list.
hanging, firing squad or be-heading, if the man's a perv/sex offender.
no problem, i'd watch just 2 c justice done 4 once.

Answer 8

Why not just use a table vice to crush your testicles.

You, sir, fall into the catagory of cruel and unusual punishment.

Answer 9

ummmmm
i wouldnt want to see it
maybe the rush of actually seeing might
be a little cool and disturbing at the same time
but then i think what if that was someone i love
and then its just downright wrong

Answer 10

i think there would be a lot less crime if we held public executions here. would i watch.....maybe if i knew the person who was wronged.
