Yes, for crimes against children in which there is absolute and irrefutable evidence. No. Rehabilitation is the single best option for society. Some people, however, are immune to rehabilitation. Hanging is the only proper form of capital punishment.
I think a quick bullet to the head is better. Less suffering.

Psychological impact is inevitable no matter what.
I have to disagree. If someone takes a life why do they deserve to keep theirs?

No matter the method, there's still going to be an impact on the people doing the executions, unless they're properly conditioned for the job.

The death penalty is never justified. I don't care if we captured Hitler, there's never an excuse for government-mandated murder.

Apparently the Taliban would tie up a criminal at a post or whatever, set up some old Soviet machine guns, and let the family of the dead victim rain down fire on the tied up person

Especially the state they get to live in. Nowadays prisoners live in pretty damn good conditions.

If they did, they clearly wouldn't be running around the middle east the way they are.
There's no psychological effects when somebody wants revenge
