No...no needle. Hanging, beheading or firing squad. No pleasant death is to be permitted a violent man. He is to die under fear and violent procedure. No overdose that sends one off quietly and pleasantly...it must be an object lesson to the peoples.
I remember when "Death Wish" came to the theatres. The audience cheered when Bronson whacked out the would be robber in Central Park. It revealed the mind set of the people...attempt to rip off and you die. Object lesson.
