Not TOO thin, so 15 up to 19 gauge will work fine. Too thin, and it will cut the throat and while death is assured after that, cutting off the blood flow to the brain with a slightly thicker wire puts someone unconscious faster.
But then clothesline can work well too.

do it right and you won't choke him out,
snap that neck like a good old hanging.
disclaimer,
they hung white guys for their crimes,
I am not going kkk on him.
Too much evil knowledge. You are all potential killers!
Typically 1/4 to 3/8 inches. This can work if:
1. You can pull enough slack to wrap around the miscreant's neck. Not as easy as you might think.
2. Wear gloves in case there are snags on the cable strands. Otherwise you might cut your fingers and leave DNA evidence.
