Seems the sensible way would be just two shooters at short range with M-16 rifles.”

That would probably work. Accountability would be good. So, the likelyhood of any of the two intentionally missing would be low. Also, was thinking about some sort of automated firing system that would be programmed to strike the subject exactly in spot. Kinda like used in the Jackal but smaller than 20mm, lol!

There’s something in the Mormon religion that calls for ‘the spilling of blood’ to atone for the crime of murder.

It is in Genesis 9:6.

Whoso sheddeth man's blood, by man shall his blood be shed: for in the image of God made he man.

How about the old Soviet style, with the prisoner being walked down a hallway in Lubiyanka when a gunman steps out of a door behind him and blows his brains out?
