FGS. Amazingly, the Boston jury got it right.
It isn’t amazing to me the jury got it right...as I have said, most people think the guy should die. I say this from talking to “normal” people, that is friends, acquaintances, co-workers, people in general.
This meme from liberals that people wringing their hands is being advanced for a reason.
Personally, I don’t take joy in having someone sentenced to death. But because I am not whooping and hollering doesn’t mean I don’t think it is richly deserved and 100% appropriate.
I don’t know where the NYT got its statistics from, but it is all horse-hooey.
Not so surprising if you know the history here.
