Saddam's Execution

[DarkRacer]

So who would watch if CNN or BBC broadcast it live for the whole world, or at least on youtube?

[kellygrrrrrl]

I would.

I think it will be one of the most monumental moments in history.

[Steven]

I would.

and in general, I think executions should be televised (with parental control).

[Shade Everdark]

I rather doubt that I would.

I don't need to see someone die. Indeed, lately I've had a stomach-full of death.

[Hellion]

Would'nt bother me at all,kinda funnytoo,LOL!!,The human rights morons would probably be upset though

[phee]

I guess he has never done anything to me personally... I will pass

[Nienna]

I would, but only for the historical significance of it.

I feel for the man in a morbid way. This isn't his war. He didn't pick a fight with us, he just got the blame.

[saechalyn]

I have no desire to watch a human being die, no matter who they are.

[ManicQueen]

I'd watch it.

[Head Wreck]

nope. i'm very much againtst capitol punnishment

[phee]

nope. i'm very much againtst capitol punnishment

Me too

[LuluVox]

I'm with the "don't wanna see anyone die" camp.

[pharoh]

I would be renting a big screen for the occasion and having everyone over

I'll bring the Beer!!

[Brenda Starrr]

I don't think I could stomach that.

[sass_in_the_pants]

I won't even watch CSI, so to see a real person die, no, I don't think I could handle that.

The first one is always the worst....it gets easier.

[Msterbeau]

Nope. I've seen someone die. The images will never go away. I don't want to have Saddam in my head for the rest of my life. Thanks anyway.

[Fierce Critter]

Osama, maybe. Saddam? Whatever.

And Nienna, it was brave of you to say that. I have thought something similar, but then I remember the people who died by his command.

[DarkVampire]

I have no desire to watch someone die.

Frodo: It's a pity Bilbo didn't kill him when he had the chance.

Gandalf: Pity? It was pity that stayed Bilbo's hand. Many that live deserve death. Some that die deserve life. Can you give it to them, Frodo? Do not be too eager to deal out death in judgment. Even the very wise cannot see all ends. My heart tells me that Gollum has some part to play yet, for good or ill before this is over. The pity of Bilbo may rule the fate of many.

[Homicidalheathen]

Nope. Cause I don't want to promote the profit from it. They should have just gotten him out a long time ago in the first place, seems silly to execute some old guy long after the fact. Boring.....and kinda sick to watch.

[littlepinkkitty]

Saddam was an evil person who murdered a lot of innocent people. I think he will spend a long time in hell for what he did. I dont know if i would want to watch him die....seeing death actually take place would spook me. I am happy that there is less evil in this world now. I am just afraid of what his foolwers will do next.

[n0Mad]

spook me.

You called? lol

Anyway, I wouldn't watch the event but I would like to have the option to watch.

[pharoh]

Well I have the video folks, those who want to see the video pm me your email address. it's 1.5 megs in size, quicktime player, and it's kinda shakey, but it is the real deal.

[Marblez]

Nope, not for me. I have mixed emotions already about whether I am for or against Capital punishment. Sometimes I do feel that it is appropriate. But I do know that loss of any life is not something that I feel should be celebrated, ridiculed or used for entertainment purposes. However, if I had family killed by him, seeing it would aid with closure.

Televising or making the tape available for those who CHOOSE to watch it may have some historical educational/deterrent effect though it is not likely to be a great deterrent with the idea of Martyrdom (is that a word) being thrown around.
