It's a fairly simple question. This needn't necessarily mean being a member of a firing squad. This could be as simple as flipping a switch or pulling a lever or whatever.

I do not support the death penalty, so I vote accordingly.

Not a supporter of the death penalty, but for some un-specified circumstances. Within those circumstances, as much as I might not want to, I'd have to examine my beliefs, make the sign of the Cross, take a deep breath, and flip the switch.

It would depend on the method of execution.

I support the death penalty, but only for very heinous crimes where it's completely certain they are guilty. I highly doubt I'd have too many qualms about pulling the lever for Tsarnaev, or a pedophilic serial rapist/murderer.

Depends on the pay and benefits and any additional duties attached to the job.  Thankfully, it's not something one can count on as a full-time job.

Not my cup of tea, but if in an alternative universe, it were deemed a civic duty (unless one conscientiously objected), like serving on a jury, I suppose so.

Of course not, but then again, I'm against the death penalty.
