When we set ourselves up as judge and exacusinor we are no better than the one that did the crime.
I am for life impresiment only when it is carried out as such. I would like to see some of these people sit for a life time on this earth to think about what they have done. To find a way to come to a peace within themselves if at all possible. When we KILL them it is over for them and they have learned nothing and we have said VENGIN is mine. It is not ours it belongs to God.
I personally know some of these in prison from this crime. They were/are good people. They came from good homes. They were troubled and it lead them astray and they did a terrible thing, in my opion. I hurt for them and their families. What have we really solved by killing them? Does taking a life now give the family that was wronged peace. can we take an eye for an eye and find Peace.
I am for more training of those in prision and less TV's and the likes. Prison is not a holiday place but it is a place of iner searching of those that are there. I am not for killing to make others feel better.

We say we are Chritians then lets act like it.
