(Reuters) - U.S. Attorney General William Barr has drafted legislation that would speed the death penalty for people who have committed mass murder, a White House official said on Monday.
Marc Short, chief of staff to Vice President Mike Pence, told reporters on Air Force 2 that the measure would be part of a package of gun legislation that the White House intends to propose to Congress.

As long as it's known beyond a reasonable doubt that someone has committed a mass shooting, or other mass murder event, then I think a speedy death sentence is acceptable. Where I live, we "joke" about how this is the old west and a lot of these heinous crime committers oughta be "hung from the nearest tall tree", like, as soon as they're caught ... but y'know, we're basically not really joking.
