Yes, hanging too. Have to see it through the lens of progressives - they don't want to ever discourage crime or encourage people who want to see criminals punished so they make the executions shameful - then they can later try to eliminate them and no one will defend them.
Don't speak for all of us but both are fine with me. The important part is that the power can't be solely in the hands of the state - has to be in the patriarchs of the communities - otherwise the only thing the state will enforce is its prohibition on executing criminals.
