Secretary Hogsweat's live streamed public execution - Magical Realist - Oct 9, 2026
Secretary Hogsweat is planning a live-streamed execution by firing squad for sometime in December. Great! Maybe he can time it around Christmas, just when the spirit of peace on earth and goodwill towards men is at its peak!

Compared to ISIS videos of them beheading innocent people or Hamas raping and killing, I'll take a public display of consequences for crimes any day.

Fortunately this isn't "A Clockwork Orange." Nobody has to watch any of that shit.

Yep, and I probably won't watch. Just like I didn't watch Charlie Kirk get shot, ISIS beheadings, etc..
But this one is at least more worthy of existing out in the public eye.
Did you watch Kirk get shot? @_@

I support capital punishment. If anyone deserves it, this guy does. 13 dead, 33 wounded.
I don't know if I will watch though. I might, out of curiosity.

Yep..but that wasn't a govt-sponsored public execution either.

But you were willing to watch an innocent father and husband get murdered... but not willing to watch a criminal face due punishment.

It's a matter of human principle. I will never watch any State-sponsored event designed to satisfy the presumed bloodlust of the American people. We are better than that.

No, you'll just watch bloodletting on behalf of the left.

One is a tragic news event. The other is a staged appeasement of some assumed American desire to see felons being killed. My guess is that hardly anyone will watch the execution.
