“straw hat” = “straw man”

Oops, I had the image already in stored so it showed up fine in my preview page.

She still might have cleaned up nice IMHO.

It’s a waste incarcerating a drug user. Nonviolent drug offenders should not be in jail.

No I mean the worst thing you did, did you or did you not divulge it to your spouse, children, and community? or are you just a hypocrite?

That's ridiculous. You're ridiculous!

What's ridiculous is blaming one's addiction and narcotics trafficking on the death of a boyfriend.

If someone has not learned by age 53 to take responsibility for their own actions, then they never will.

Not sure what you thought she should have learned.

Not to excuse her crimes by appealing to circumstances.

It would have been a sin to keep a felony secret from my bride-to-be. But thanks for playing! Here are some lovely parting gifts!

As much as I dislike your "lock her up in maximum security" comment, your remark on not blaming her crime on circumstances is right on the money. Good insight.

I agree completely, at nineteen she was looking at a life sentence in her eyes.

I never understood how people get mad at inmates who try to escape prison after they get a life sentence. If I was her I would try my hardest to get out and be free, of course they will try to escape, its human nature!

She should be fined, given probation and house arrest for a good long while with an ankle bracelet. Paying to feed and clothe here after all this time is foolish IMHO.

I pray that the courts show mercy to this woman, by reducing her sentence to time served plus community service, and that her husband and family can forgive her.

"She clearly has learned zero life lessons."

And what, exactly, do you base that assertion upon? If indeed her life has been "respectable" since her escape, why would you assume she has learned "no life lessons"?

She’s appealing for mercy - I’m sure her lawyer told her not to hold back any story of woe that could generate sympathy.

Give her a check for half and tell her we'll call it even......

LOL A voice of sanity and reason echoes through the wasteland of FR!

A sad way for you to admit that you do not understand the posted article.

I gather since you have not answered my question two times and you want me to go away, that you are a hypocrite, thanks, enjoyed playing your game.
