COMMENTS:
I disagree, it is ethically untenable, and morally reprehensible, ..... however I would make one exception, to see those lying traitor immoral psychopathic mass murdering criminals Cheney, Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz etc. those dastardly fiends who have taken over your country and who are busy destroying it and your freedoms put to the sword. ;o)
Why don't we get convicted CEO's, lobbyists, and politicians to fight to the death every Sunday instead of football. Football is too tame for us bloodthirsty Americans. However, I don't think ordinary convicts would generate much excitement for long. Let's watch Tom Delay go head to head with Jack Abramoff in a flamethrower duel? Or Saddam Hussein v. Karl Rove in a contest pitting them against each other with claw hammers. Imagine the excitement! Yes, you've hit on something. It's demented, but it does stir the blood.
This is even more barbaric and morally reprehensible than the death penalty. Making money off of this?? Why not feed them to some lions?
Voted : yes
and we could text votes to spare lives while Ryan Seacrest hosts!

I don't think it's any more inhumane than executing them normally, but it's just creepy. If someone wants to watch someone else die so bad they should just get Faces of Death or something. And I doubt enough people would participate to get rid of national debt.

Executions should be televised, but that television should be made available to all of the public, though they should be televised in the middle of the night to avoid frightening children.
People need to see what the State is doing.
No, applerod. They need to run them on regular network channels live and repeatedly on evening newscasts. People should be forced to have their children watch them. Then maybe people will see how barbaric it is.
"Mommy, why is smoke coming out of the top of that man's head" (After he gets electrocuted in the electric chair).
"Mommy, why is that man gasping for air and why do they have him tied down so he can't escape?"
Go ahead parents who support capital punishment... explain this stuff to your kids.
^Exactly. I think people have a right to know what the government is doing. We need more images, and not just more images of the administration of the death penalty, but more images of the (presently abstracted) mass death in Iraq. People don't tend to "get" these things until they see pictures of them.
Voted : no
It is barbaric and panders to the worst elements of voyeuristic sociopaths. I don't see how it could not contribute to coarsened attitides and wider acceptance of violence.
It would be a great way to recover the cost of trials, housing and medical care provided for these animals.
Voted : yes
I would pay to see Saddam hang
