I'm all for public hangings.
You, and the lynch mob who were circling the court house every day during the trial of good Christian lady Lyndy Chamberlain for murdering her baby Azaria at Uluru, near Alice Springs in central Australia some time ago.
Meryl Streep played Lyndy in the movie.

Luckily, Lindy got to cry in the light after she was convicted of murdering her baby Azaria and sentenced to life in prison...no death sentence available.
No death sentence available...as bianco-ilk had marched in the streets, screamed with outrage, and had death sentences and death chambers abolished some time before.
Marched in the streets with the Cross and the noose leading one parade.
The death of Ronald Ryan - In Depth - theage.com.au
February 2, 2007
TOMORROW is the 40th anniversary of the last judicial hanging in Australia, the execution in Melbourne of Ronald Ryan for the shooting murder of prison officer George Hodson, 41, during an escape from Pentridge Prison in 1965.
Apart from an occasion to remember Australia's last official neck-breaking, the anniversary of Ryan's hanging will be observed as a signal moment in our political history: it marks the event that prompted state governments still retaining the death penalty to cut the crimson thread running through Australia's history and abolish capital punishment.
We remember Ryan now as an unlikely candidate for the gallows, a small-time crook whose sanctioned execution by the Victorian government of Liberal premier Sir Henry Bolte caused a firestorm of community opposition, the scale and intensity of which dwarfs most modern-day protests.
etc
Lyndy Chamberlain probably would've been execution-hanged had death sentences not been abolished earlier.
While Lyndy was still alive and breaking rocks in the hard-labour prison, people who knew 'dingoes', had interviewed all the witnesses, thought the trial was unfair etc, were working to free her.
And free her they did.

Lindy Chamberlain was released from jail on February 7 1986, but not cleared until September 15 1988, at which time Lindy and Michael (her husband) were declared innocent of all charges. She and Michael were divorced on June 27 1991. She met Rick Creighton on a speaking[/color] tour of the United States in February 1992 and married him on December 20 1992.
Lucky the lynch mob was foiled and Lindy wasn't hanged, eh?
All convicteds must be kept alive, some of them could be innocent.
Trust the govt?
No thank you!
Trust the justice system anywhere?
No thank you!
