I think naming the executio...I see it differently. I think naming the executioner would be far more disrespectful. I don't know how accurate it is, but movies typically depict executioners as hooded. I view them as a (debatably) necessary function of society, but not one for which anyone wants to be known. The anonymity is a way of saying that it's not an individual man, but society as a whole, who is executing someone. I doubt the executioner wants to be known as such, and I'd like to believe he takes no pleasure in it. I assume that's why his name is rarely mentioned.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
