There have even been a few half-reluctant admissions around here that I have a good point from time to time. Imagine how many lurkers there are in total agreement with me but who are hesitant to enter the fray. You can't blame them given the viciousness of some of the gun guys.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09806175370305006933noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6314891743204395487.post-23686521453754128622009-11-21T23:35:48.995+01:002009-11-21T23:35:48.995+01:00Certainly an example that guns don't make peop...Certainly an example that guns don't make people murderous.

What a travesty when an innocent person goes to death row for life --or to death.<br /><br />I love the <i>Law and Order</i>series for showing that some evil people are REALLY evil and deserve to die. On the other hand, the series <i>Raising the Bar</i> which I also am a fan of, shows the defense side and cultivates compassion for the accused, right or wrong.<br /><br />A humane society is rightly compassionate --but when an old gink buries a child alive --or tortures someone --or imprisons his daughter as a sex slave and makes her bear her own brothers and sisters --I do think that torture and death are appropriate just so they'd know what that feels like! But I wouldn't really want the responsibility of carrying out such justice or being the judge! I suppose some would say such people probably DID receive abuse as kids and are thus evil as a result. Or maybe they are just psychopaths whose parents never taught them otherwise, never cultivated their consciences.Barbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05016832868807957194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6314891743204395487.post-79694669579327110692009-11-19T12:38:44.105+01:002009-11-19T12:38:44.105+01:00That IS their sentence.
