In old days a large crowd turned up. They could sell ringside seats and make a video. The profits could be used to help the relatives of the victim

Modern executions are designed not to make a mess, and to be almost imperceptible. That's why lethal injection is so popular, and why the British perfected hanging so that at the drop, the brain would be separated from the spinal cord without drawing blood.
At least with hanging there was action at the drop. With lethal injection it would be a boring exhibition. Nobody would come.

Why? Do you really think that by letting the community wittiness an execution it will denture other criminals? I don't think so. I've been to prison , not a fun place , let real criminals rot there! The world has enough killing already!

Yes! Not because it would be entertaining, but I think it should be seen by people who support it. We hide it away so as not to be exposed to how barbaric and primitive we really are. We tell our kids that killing is wrong, but how do we illustrate this lesson? By killing those who kill!

Some people say that's the only way for people too see how barbaric and unworthy of us this custom is.

Are we so desensitized that watching someone die is entertainment?
