"its rare indeed that any poster expresses any regret except for the length of time it took to execute them or the method was too quick/not painful enough."

That's because many people here support the death penalty. Why would anyone express regret for a convicted murderer's execution?

That was my original point; madivan was criticising China and I just made the observation I think that a lot of posters to this site would like to do the same thing that China is being criticised for.

It's not that so much that a lot of FReepers seem to enjoy the spilling of another human being's blood. Some of us correctly find that disturbing. Feeling joy over death is not normal, regardless of how you may feel about it.
