- ShinTakuya 8y agoDepending on the manner of beheading it's not the worst type of execution. A quick slice on a guillotine is preferable to an electric chair for example...
- xrd 8y agoAre you telling me this so I can make the right choice when the time comes? Or, because the victim's family will be pleased to know that? Does this "fact" change the concern expressed in the article, do you think?
- ShinTakuya 8y agoI don't disagree, I'm against all executions. I'm just saying that if it was a quick beheading then I would say "execution" wouldn't be an euphemism like you've been saying.
- ericd 8y agoBut he clearly wasn't talking about the beheading part being the sensationalized part.
