How to use hangman in a sentence?
When state and government have gone, laws must go. People who speak of “laws” in a communistic society, think perhaps only of those general rules of sensible and noble conduct which every good man finds it easy to observe.

Behind the law stand the court, the sheriff, the police, the hangman, etc., and who wants them? None, we guess.
