If you excecute someone by shooting or hanging, someone is going to have to push the person or pullt he trigger. Nobody wants that responsibility.

I know how a firing squad works actually. But they are saying a bullet straight to the head...shotgun to the stomach. You aren't donna do that at the range a firing squad would.
Yes, all but one have a blank, j_ball.

Could be either way, I recall that only the loader(who was not on the firing squad) new which weapons were loaded but even he did not know which weapon went to which member. The general effect was to eliminate any potential emotional damage or potential repurcussions to the squad members.
8 rifles, 4 rounds chambered, only God know which rifles did the job.
Also, even with LI someone has to stick the needle in his arm.
There was a time when people were impressed that I have the firepower to decimate a planet in under 10 minutes.

Oh poo, I'm gonna cry now. OK so I got it backwards. At least I knew that some guns were blanks and some not. The concept of it is to create uncertainty about who killed the... well the person who was to be executed.
You guys say you'll kill a merderer right now? OK... whatever :rolleyes:
Fine with me. I'm glad there are people out there who could do that job. I know I couldn't.

Its called disabling someone. If someone holds a gun to your head, you hit their hand or gun to point in a safe direction then pry the gun off them, dispose of it, or use it against them You don't neccessarily have to shoot them.
If you do shoot someone, however, you don't have to shoot to kill. Police learn to aim for non-vital, but disabling parts of the body to shoot.
If someone attacks me with their bare fists, knife, gun whatever, I get the better of them so they can't harm me in any way, I'm NOT going to proceed and beat the shit out of them untill they die.

If it costs less than a dollar to kill an attacker, it costs less not to kill him. If you defend youself against an attacker, but proceed to kill him, then that could be deemed as "overkill" (non legal term btw). You could be liable for that.
The idea is to send people to prison and rehabilitate them. Not just kill them on the spot. Thats why prisons have libraries, teachers, and thats why you can learn a trade if you are in prison long enough so when you are released, you won't resort to crime.
