Would you ever act as witness to an execution ?

Even with no question that the convicted had committed an especially heinous crime ?
(If you are completely anti-death penalty under all circumstances, this question is obviously not directed at you)

I believe I have stated that I'm against the death penalty multiple times before.

Yet the reasoning solely because that death is far too easy an out. Yes some of these death penalty cases are unchangeable. Yet even they often want the death penalty themselves.

In other words, they want the easy way out. Not to change is easy. Death IS the easy way out.
@DeWayfarer That’s why I put that disclaimer. People against the death penalty in all circumstances would probably want to scroll past this question.

@bijouxbroussard It's a little more than just that, yet I won't change the topic of discussion to a broader frame.
@DeWayfarer Thank you. I gave the disclaimer because I wasn’t planning to debate about the death penalty here.
