Mark wrote about capital punishment:
Joe Gores wrote a very moving story, Second Coming, about
being such a witness.
************** If I recall correctly, McCarthy's No Country
for Old Men starts out with a legal killing, and the guy is
such an asshole that it's hard to conjure up much sympathy
for him. There's some kind of punchline but I can't remember
what it is. I think the guy being executed says some really
rude stuff about his family, and then you find out his
daughter was in the audience.
Some readers are put off by McCarthy's flavor of execution,
but I can imagine him loving that.
