    I am all in for that. A rope would be good, but I would be good at a firing squad. As the old series, "Have Gun, Will Travel".

    To quick & clean, IMO. Hanging would create a much more gruesome event, even repulsive to most. Done in a VERY public place, I would think it would be a powerful deterrent. Never gonna happen, I know. Neither will public firing squads, but either one would make these maniacs think about their future.

    This may sound bad or maybe even morbid, but I would take pride in taking out a murderer and could sleep better at night knowing I did so. A 5.56 round in the head would do it pretty quick and much cheaper than giving them shots of poison.

    But then a rope is reusable. And like you say, if done right, in a public setting, would be a deterrent. BUT so would a publicly viewed firing squad. I say we offer both. Give the person that is put to death and let them choose.

    Boom or rope.

    If a hanging is done correctly death is quick. The neck gets snapped and basically severs the spinal cord.

    "In a judicial hanging, the victims are typically dropped a distance greater than their height through a trapdoor. At this point, the rope becomes rigid, and the force of the noose should break the victim's neck, causing immediate paralysis and unconsciousness.

    The procedure causes a classic "hangman's fracture" — a break between the head and the neck, effectively snapping the upper cervical spine."
