Agree.  And enough with these milquetoast lethal injections.  I'd like to see a good hanging;  publically if possible.  Nothing like the sound of that trapdoor opening, and the "snap" of the rope, followed by the eerie sound of the wind blowing as the body swings ever so gently in the breeze.   Kinda like the Old West.   And for the folks who can't see it "live" we could have some of those loudmouth sports announcers moderate it on TV, complete with slo-mo and instant replay.  Tough part would be...finding a sponsor (gotta work on that one).   But, yeah, I agree with you completely Steve, and...it sure was a nice day for a hanging.   Firing squad would work for me also.  Tough choice there.

 

And as for Danny Rolling:

He showed no remorse and refused to make any comments or offer any apology to the relatives of his victims, several of whom were present at his execution as witnesses. Instead he chose to sing a song. His last meal consisted of lobster tail, butterfly shrimp, baked potato, strawberry cheesecake and sweet tea.
