Wow, Bush* could be the host. Bet this would rally the right base. Nothing like a good town square hanging to get folks into the Holiday Season.

Squeal or no Squeal.

2. Many have said that live TV executions weren't far off
Wonder if they knew how right they could be

5. They will find a way. Then it will show up in Republikaner
campaign materials for the next 50 years.

6. They've Already Shown Beheadings and Shootings - Why Not A Hanging?
We've already seen executions on TV. Beheadings in Saudi Arabia, Firing Squads in North Korea. The only thing left to do now is bring the camera in closer. There was never a 'better' one to show than this one. Of course we're going to get to see it. You can bet the farm on it.

8. There are certain things I will NEVER seek out...
You've just listed quite a few... I know the beheadings exist out there, but I do NOT wish to see it.. I've seen enough gore and violence in my life and don't understand the need to seek out more.:shrug:


Hell, I'm not even turning on the tv because I have no desire to witness grissly gaiety over the guilty plea and spectre of his future hanging... I find those reactions blood curdling and sickening.

7. Youtube will have it.
I wonder how they made the choice of hanging? To maximize how many could see it?

15. I'd be tempted to one-up you further... :)
However, I do know that vinyl is sort of chic these days, so it's doubtful that a freep would have any LP collection or even equipment of merit. I believe a freeper would still be using a cassette tape, perhaps a JCPenny's boombox...

Still, I am uncertain if an audio-only release of the hanging would go over well with a freeper.
