Isn't it about time that we brought back public hangings for the convicted perps? I really don't believe that anything else is going to get the point across.

No--they get attorneys that shed a cloud of reasonable doubt over the jury--or at best, they spend the next 20 years in air conditioned comfort on "death row"... I don't think child molester/kidnappers have ANY sense of right or wrong...why would a public hanging deter them? They know they have already hit bottom when they commit their crimes. Death by law may seem like the only way out of their HELL.

I think they should put them on TV so EVERYONE who choses to watch throughout our country can. Maybe if a few of these "wannabe's" see what their fate is they'll think twice before committing such a heinous act.
