Hanging them is entirely appropriate, and in fact the only possible just response, particularly since they show no remorse at all for their mass murder.

I prefer a wood chipper.

For the guys at the very top, I'd like to see a death penalty that's a lot slower and painful. They had some good execution techniques for this in medieval times.

I understand the sentiment, but I'm very attached to the US Constitution, which prohibits cruel and unusual punishment. Hanging them for their crimes seems sufficient to me.

Obviously I don't have real expectations of bringing back quartering, disemboweling, burning at the stake, or the breaking wheel. It's just kind of "fun" to think of them actually having as much pain inflicted on them as they have inflicted on others.

They would probably be punished more by being put in prison for life, surrounded by some bad a** dudes with real reasons to hate them.

I understand that, having never been as angry in my life as when they were chasing me and my family around with needles, and then later saying it was somehow "optional".

I'm serious about hanging though. They really must be hanged.
