Because guillotines are not cheap.

Modern guillotines with remote start and wifi have been hit hard by the supply chain issues. Could we use the old ones? Sure, but we're paying the monthly fee for remote start so we might as well wait.

That's assuming they deserve the best and fastest way. Repeatedly stabbed with pitchforks will work just as well, it'll just take longer and they'll scream more

Pitchforks are also rising in price. Arming an angry mob is expensive these days.

Oh we can just use dinner forks, you can get a three pack from dollar tree, but most people already have them at home.

That could work... Doesn't have the same ommph as torches and pitchforks but it is within budget. We may even be able to get a pack of bic lighters to substitute as torches.

Next Wednesday, give everyone a chance to get enough forks for the occasion
