I get the point, but death is a lot less serious in this game than in real life. Criminals would practically be begging for this sentence because it’s only a couple of minutes detained opposed to the maximum jail sentence (one hour). Additionally the one gun loaded with one bullet while the others remain empty simply doesn’t work in DC because you see how many bullets you have in a subtitle, you can actually see the bullet, and you can hear the bullet (completely avoiding the purpose of negating guilt). I mean maybe this could work if it was, “when you die from execution you can only spectate for the next 100 hours,” or smth to make it more serious and make the execution from a withering potion.

This bill will only establish the process of the execution itself. Should there be a death row, or however the punishment be used, will be in a different bill.

The firing squad method also doesn't work because of chat logs. I will be amending this bill to use a different method of execution.

Well we need both in the same bill before judges start handing out this sentence
