George. >>>That's the point. It is NOT practical, almost by definition.

If wishes were horses it might be practical.
1. Define a set of special no doubt about it guilt criterion.
video tape and eye witness and whatever.

2. Use of a handgun in crimes X,y, .... whatever.

3. You will be hung by the neck until dead plus 2 days, tomorrow The body will be within 24 hours dropped into the sea from 20,000 feet at least 300 miles off shore.

Such wistful thinking would reduce the number of guns used in crime. This would also eliminate any concern about such a criminal not being rehabilitated.
