Yes, we should try to avoid the Judge Dredd Futzie Syndrome which has infected the “progressives” going back to Plato’s Republic and the Long Walls of Athens.
I want to Establish World Peece, Free all the Umptie Candeees, and KILL EVERYBODY!!
That’s how it always ends up with a “socialist” revolution.
Every. Single. Time.
Seen in that light, I’ve always been struck by just what a “black swan” event the American Revolution really was.
It was possibly the one Revolution in history that did not degenerate into a “Kill Everybody and Scream Incoherently” abattoir.
If our post-modern progressives have their way, that is exactly what their “Radiant Future” will be.
Because as Callahan said of Scorpio, they’ll do it because they like it.
RE your comment about the American one not being a “black swan” event, that’s a good observation. This is as much due to the temperament of the general populace, as the more well-known “founders” of the day. Word was often passed down between churches in different towns and it took quite awhile for colonists in South Carolina to feel a unity with someone in Boston. But the time was perfect (“ordained” almost) for that feeling to grow, tobacco farmer to tin smith.
I’d recommend “American Insurgents, American Patriots” by T.H. Breen to the Kommentariat here.
The genius of the Founding Fathers was that they preferred leaders such as John Adams to his brother Sam Adams.
Both were Patriots, but one was a servant leader of the first magnitude and the other a world class rabble rouser.
Or as King George said of George Washington at the end of his second term: “If he turns down being crowned King, he is the greatest man who ever lived.”
Too often we forget that. Washington had a chance to be king – his army offered it to him. He wisely refused. And after two terms as President, long before Congress approved the Twenty-second Amendment limiting Presidents to two terms, on March 21, 1947, George Washington established the precedent that on precedent by refusing to run for a third term.
Agree with you completely EON…….HOWEVER…..I think setting up a guillotine either on the National Mall or at the top of the stairs to the SCOTUS and publicly executing a few of the gutless, scum-sucking, soulless P’sOS who pushed all the hate and divisiveness that ultimately resulted in the assassination of Charlie Kirk, might not be such a bad idea!!!!!!!
To wit:, this one completed last night took more than 30 years in a case of absolute guilt…but it took DeSantis (now the most signed death warrants in state history with two more in the pipeline for this year) less than five to git ‘er done, no thanks to idiots like these, not dissimilar to the idiots now harping about the sweet little trans boy who killed Charlie…
“Floridians for Alternatives to the Death Penalty, an advocacy group, has called on DeSantis to stop the executions, arguing that the state is responding to violence with more violence. “The death penalty is punishment-as-spectacle, rooted in retribution and hatred. It does not make us safer. It does not deliver justice. It does not prevent future harm. Instead, it normalizes violence, fuels cycles of hate, and deepens our collective wounds,” the organization stated in an email last week.”
Effing idiots. They are correct about this though: killing these monsters is absolutely rooted in retribution and the public spectacle is part and parcel of dissuading more of them…so damn absurd that it takes decades and hundreds of thousands of dollars to get them in the chair, up against the wall, or climbing the gallows…DeSantis is the man!

Amen. String that assassin up in the middle of the mall. Then, draw and quarter the carcass, no grave, gibbets with the remainder. Let that sink in to the furry-minded, trans-crazy sects. “I don’t like it any more than uou do. But he wants it, so he gets it.”
In cases where there is no hope of ‘rehabilitating’ a murderer who may express remorse now but acted deliberately before, during and before being found guilty, or in cases like this for deliberate assassination of a public figure and by extension expressing a desire to assassinate all those who support them, execution is not only warranted but demanded to show that evil cannot escape to continue goading on their followers from a jail cell until some judge appointed by their patron frees them with no accountability.
The method of execution is a simple choice, the exact same way they committed their crime, with the exact same suffering their victim felt.
The last time a firing squad was formed there was no shortage of volunteers…I’m pretty sure the victim’s friends and relatives could muster a few. If it’s good enough for the jihadis, it’s good enough for us, after all the left want’s everyone to emulate the uninvited ‘immigrants’ so what’s wrong with defending the family’s honour the way they do ? That and there’s lots of high buildings here for the rainbow jihadis…hmmm I wonder if they plan on putting a diving board on the Dubai tower ?

As L. Neil Smith once said, the proper time for capital punishment for murder is at the time of the intended offense and at the hands of the intended victim. Otherwise known as Statute No .357.
As far as its effect on future potential offenders, it is a fact that no murderer ever executed for their crime ever murdered anyone else, ever again.
Capital punishment is the only form of judicial measure with a zero recidivism rate.
Tyler Robinson might be executed. Although I very much doubt it. He committed an act of “direct action” against someone who was highly unpopular with the Powers That Be.
Luigi Mangione will almost certainly never be executed. After all, he is an internet influencer and a darling of the enlightened elite’.
I expect him to have his offense (aggravated murder- premeditated) plea- bargained down to manslaughter, time served, and probation.
Robinson may get the same absolution.
Anybody who thinks this is far-fetched has never seen just how often it happens with gangbangers in court in NYC, Chicago, LA, etc., in which every drive-by shooting is written off as a cri du cœur from the “underprivileged”.

Robespierre’s Law: Power you give government to do unto others will be used to do unto you.
I’d rather we not rediscover that the hard way.
They way I see it, is Obama and the Biden administrations and fellow travelers as the latest, did that to us already.
I see no law against public execution. It has legal precedent here in the USA.
It should be done for the right reasons: eg: assassins.
Yes, Hanging. My preference would be a short drop versus a long drop
Our problem isn’t the method of croaking the scum in our midst but the process of getting them there…
Sad to say in the 20 years capital removal takes, nobody will remember or care why he’s there.
To wit:, this one completed last night took more than 30 years in a case of absolute guilt…but it took DeSantis (now the most signed death warrants in state history with two more in the pipeline for this year) less than five to git ‘er done, no thanks to idiots like these, not dissimilar to the idiots now harping about the sweet little trans boy who killed Charlie…

Of all places, a quote from The West Wing pops to mind, “My only regret is that we can only kill the bastard once.”

YES…….IT IS!!!!!!!

Great idea, and it feels like the best type of justice. However, I can’t imagine the executioner that could deliver it.
The last time a firing squad was formed there was no shortage of volunteers…I’m pretty sure the victim’s friends and relatives could muster a few. If it’s good enough for the jihadis, it’s good enough for us, after all the left want’s everyone to emulate the uninvited ‘immigrants’ so what’s wrong with defending the family’s honour the way they do ?
