The man just doesn't like controversy (or free speech it would seem)....it's just too messy for him.
"Can't we all just get along? That's possible in a dictatorship where thought is imposed.
What a nuisance a judicial murder is.
People who are breaking the rules are the ones who say the issues aren't "black and white,but gray".
***Thank God this part of the story is over.***
What a ghoul!

It is "we the people" and God's will, will be done.
add Hospice. They are/were complicit in the killing.
What a complete waste of column space. This intellectual lightweight and moral coward's entire column was summed up in his first sentence. The rest was a whole bunch of nothing.
Exactly!
It makes his brain hurt.
Why, that's so INTOLERANT of you to say so!
