    Just asking for a friend. Did they stop public beheadings in France…

    ( Please note, this is just an awful joke. In no way do I advocate the death sentence. in any shape or form.)

      They did - the last one was in 1977 though, which really isn’t that long ago!

      EDIT - wait, you said public beheading. That was in 1939 - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eugen_Weidmann?wprov=sfla1

        What we usually say is that the last one was after the release of Star Wars

          Not sure why I find that more disturbing than just the date! Probably because it links to something so very wonderful.

            Maybe

            But anyway the whole beheading fact is less impactful in an international channel since for example the US still has death penalty
