Suppose you're a part-time Executioner / Hangman for a particular state. Would it affect you, do you think?

Animals I could not kill, couldn't do it.

Evil people who have hurt others? I wouldn't have a problem at all, honestly. Have seen with my own eyes some horrors in my life that other people have inflicted, if they were convicted and sentenced accordingly I would have no trouble ending them at all.

not me because i'm mortified if I tread on a snail tbh but the only way I'd ever take a job like that is if I knew it wouldn't get to me, but it would so I wouldn't.

How would you feel killing someone who was later discovered to have been wrongly convicted?

Must be something that happens.

cos the justice system has proven to be 100% correct throughout history :m00:
I doubt as an executioner, you'd be told about the ins and the outs of the case, all you'd be told is you're killing Mr X on this date. For all you know it could of been wrong place wrong time.

It's still a job, it's just what you do and you don't call the shots, so there's no quilt in it.

You quitting wouldn't save people, you not doing what you do wouldn't postpone the execution.

Not one of the criminals, i'm betting, was sitting in that chair cursing the executioner. Especially since their anonymous :p

Without mentioning the N word (as that would show I've lost the arguement).

Isn't this the arguement that War Criminals use when justifying their actions? While it may or may not have been wrong they were just doing what they were told to do and it was their job?

Well it is a valid point, but no excuse. Afterall, they aren't most likely forced to do illegal activities and if they are, they have a defense.

Then again, there's a difference in illegal and legal jobs to do ;)
