To hang or not to hang ...

I watched a Jeanne Moos (of CNN) piece on people's guilt about watching Saddam Hussein being hung. Normally, her pieces are fluffs and very humorous. This time she asked people if they saw the video and if they felt any guilt for watching. I have to confess I did watch CNN's internet broadcast of the hanging. The video was edited so I was spared the gruesome ending. I do feel bad about it as I did not feel hanging or way he was treated while being hung was humane. I guess I am against capital punishment.

Apparently, one can freely watch the whole hanging video via internet if you want to. Personally, no thank you.
