public hangings of corrupt people would fix this so fast.

How?

We can't even stop police from continuing to do their job after they murder people, how are we going to give them the death penalty? And how is the state publicly murdering people going to discourage officers of the state from murdering people?

I can understand the feeling of anger but public hanging? Come on. People who earnestly want public hanging back are troglodytic fascists.
