Re: Executions

I would never choose to do it but I would attend if there was a legal requirement for me to do so.

I do support the death penalty because I believe that, if somebody takes another's life, they relinquish the right to plead for their own.

No I couldn't do that, it would play on my mind all the time, the person they are executing may have been innocent.

Precisely!!! and since our justice system is far from perfect, judicial murder is not practical.

Re: Executions

I wouldn't mind being a witness, I have nothing to do on a Thursday, if they provided nibbles and beer it would be a bonus.
