Even when it was bin Laden, I would have preferred he go to trial and face people for what he'd done.
Not me. I'm good with execution. If these people had any conscience or remorse, sure, make them face what they did. But they don't. They couldn't care less and efforts to shame them go unsatisfied.
I don't know a single thing about this NYC murder guy so I can't say whether he deserved it or not. Just because he's the CEO of an HMO doesn't mean he's necessarily personally evil. Or maybe it does.... Or maybe he was trafficking little children and should have suffered more. I'm not prepared to make a call. But I'll bet money there's more to this story.
