Who cares if it's Barbaric? The person literally went into a school and shot up a school. It wouldn't make the government weak, Just would mean our methods are different. Hell we even torture and waterbomb and do other things to terrorist, Some of which never successfully killed someone so we get information out of them. If you shot up schools and take people's innocent lives for no real good reason. Setting an example with public torture would probably teach people that this is what they would get it they caused such a terrible crime. People wouldnt need to live in fear, Unless they plan to shoot up schools. Though it isn't legal to torture people on America's ground. It can be taken out of America to do so.

So you are basically saying you want to stoop down to the criminals level. What I am getting from this thread is you want to stop gun violence by adding more guns, and end violence by being more violent.
If the US were to hold public executions, many foreign nations would not take it lightly. Possibly imposing sanctions crippling the US economy.
