Do executioners get paid much?

Do executioners get paid much?

I was thinking about Saddam gettin executed earlier, and I was thinking to myself how cool it must be to watch a man die. Now I know most states here use lethal injection, so all the action is taken out of it, but still. Watching someone die has got to be fun. Anyone know how much the people who administer executions get paid? What education/experience, if any is required for the job, etc?

You are sick in the head.
You won't get a job like that... I'll save the other flames for later.

P.S. Watch the green mile, good movie, high educational value on that specific topic.
 
Wow. You blocked me for admitting the natural sadism in us all? GG

This is almost as sad as when TMS blocked me for being a "commie loving liberal" for disagreeing with Israel's invasion of Lebanon.

Depends on the country, I guess. In the US: No idea. Over here: no death penalty. And in Iran/Iraq etc you probably dont want to have that job, executioners over there are treated like crap, they are tainted folks or something like that.

Oh dear, you wanna be an executioner when you can't type 6 characters in the proper order into the address bar ?!?!??!

Yes, because we all know executioners are elite computer hackers.

In the movies executioners are usually large sweaty brutes with one eye and two teeth. I am thinking the pay-scale is not that high, for sure there is no dental coverage.
 
Eye on the TV
Cause tragedy thrills me
Whatever flavor
It happens to be

Like:
"Killed by the husband"
"Drowned by the ocean"
"Shot by his own son"
She used a poison and in his tea"
...kissed him goodbye"
That's my kind of story.
It's no fun 'til someone dies

Don't look at me like
I am a monster
Frown out your one face
But with the other
Stare like a junkie
Into the TV
Stare like a zombie
While the mother holds her child,
Watches him dying;

Hands to the sky crying,
"Why, oh why?!"

Cause I need to watch things die
From a distance
Vicariously, I
Live while the whole world dies
You all need it too - don't lie.

Why can't we just admit it?
Why can't we just admit,
We won't give pause until the blood is flowin'
Neither the brave nor bold
Will write as the stories told
We won't give pause until the blood is flowin'

I need to watch things die
From a good safe distance
Vicariously, I
Live while the whole world dies
You all feel the same so
Why can't we just admit it?

Blood like rain, come down
Drawn on grave and ground

Part vampire
Part warrior
Carnivore and voyeur
Stare at the transmittal
Synched to the death rattle...

La, la, la, la, la, la, la-lie (x4)

Credulous at best
Your desire to believe in
Angels in the hearts of men.
Pull your head on out
Your head, give reason to give a listen,
Shouldn't have to say it all again.

The universe is hostile
So impossible
Devour to survive
So it is, so it's always been ...

We all feed on tragedy
It's like blood to a vampire

Vicariously, I
Live while the whole world dies
Much better you than I.

What ?
