Should the United States livestream the execution of Fort Hood shooter Nidal Hasan? Is it justice or a descent into barbarism? James Hanson asks LBC listeners whether a public execution would serve as a deterrent, provide justice for victims and their families, or turn someone's final moments into a form of entertainment. 07:11 | Dave argues it risks turning 'death into a spectator sport like the Super Bowl' 11:40 | Ellie thinks it's 'barbaric' and that 'society is going backwards' 17:11 | Ian says he'd watch it and predicts 'a large audience driven by human morbid curiosity' 22:17 | Gerry says it'd fail as a deterrent and could instead affirm extremists or create a martyr 29:26 | Edward strongly supports it 33:16 | Joseph feels 'responsible as an American citizen' to watch it 36:00 | Michael believes it is 'treason' 38:05 | Tony argues society has become 'too soft' Listen to the full show on the all-new LBC App: https://app.af.lbc.co.uk/btnc/thenewlbcapp #jameshanson #lbccaller
