I am whole sale against execution, but in a case of such treason, I feel the prosecutor should be drawn and quartered

That’s not what treason is.

There also exists the word treason, outside of the crime. I don't mean capital punishment, I mean they should be thrown to the mob

So you're against execution if we disregard all the scenarios where you're all for it. Got it.

I mean they should be thrown to the mob. Not an action of the state, they deserve to be torn from limb to limb.

Okay now I am intrigued. Where is this angry mob you speak off that is just waiting to tear people from limb from limb? What type of people is it compromised of? Is there a selection process?

Nope, the reason I used high falutin language was that comment wasn't meant to be read as a serious purposal, simply an expression of rage and grief. This article literally had me tearing up at work this morning.
