Beheading is quick, efficient and humane way to execute someone, unfortunately it also the most messy.
Hanging a headless body in public is wrong. It is offensive to anyone that views it.
The punishment is death, discard the remains, and be done with it.
Even as much as I hate anyone that would hurt a child, I do believe real crucifixion would be to severe. (nailed to a cross until dead.)
Before he is beheaded, I would hope they read the names of his victims so he would know why he was being killed.

The crucifixion part has nothing to do with the execution. Originally Posted by from the article In Saudi Arabia, crucifixion means tying the body of the convict to wooden beams to be displayed to the public after beheading.
The crucifixion part is no big deal. |

But it's not my country.

40 capital crimes a year with 40 executions to match? If only ONE of our states could get DOWN to that level. | | |
