Forgiving :)

I believe that a man who executes his or her best friend in order to save him from an angry mob should be forgiven.   Here are the reasons why.   First off they were helping their best friend because the mob would harm his friend and slowly kill him.  At least with the man killing his best friend his friend knows it will be quick and pretty much painless.   Me personally if the mob was wanting to kill me I'd rather be killed by my best friend because I'd know it'd be quick and I would trust my friend not to throw me in the river.   Another reason would be you get a choice at how you die.   You won't get killed some random way but if you want that more than feel free and let the mob kill you.   Also you get to have a respectful death and again you don't get thrown into the river to be eaten by fish but if that's how you want to go out feel free to let the mob kill you.
