The jury had the ability to convict on murder 2 and man slaughter. They didn’t.

IMHO, this verdict is a condemnation of the "moral relativity" culture we live in.....aided and abetted by the political correctness of "tolerant liberals."

Keep in mind, that to tolerant liberals, the greatest sin is "judging" others----even for the most heinous crimes.

=====================================

The “moral relativity” atrocity surfaced about 25 years ago-----promulgated by the NEA, Planned Parenthood, and the rest of the Me-First types.

Shockingly, Hefner's infamous Playboy Philosophy has actually been written into US law.

These sap-happy relativists fervently believe that one is free to do “whatever one feels is right for them.” They refuse to acknowledge that there are consequences for one‘s actions. They gamely allow moral-absolutist views just as long as those views are not imposed on them.

But the moral relativity game is full of contradictions……one of which is relativists' insistence on imposing moral relativity on others…..especially upon the malleable minds of youngsters (without parental knowledge or consent).

The relativists set-up a standard of behavior which they insist others follow, thereby violating the very thing they self-righteously defend. “Tolerance” is the singular cardinal virtue of the relativists, the One And Only absolute they tolerate. Ergo, intolerance is the only evil they recognize.

Dogmatic belief—especially a belief in absolute truth—is viewed by relativists as dreaded “intolerance"..........the ultimate sin.

In the last analysis, accountability is what relativists are really rejecting when they reject absolute truth. Those who cling to the relativity view simply do not want to be accountable for their actions. If they are expected to acknowledge absolute truth, then they have to accept absolute standards of right and wrong, and that all of us are accountable to those standards.

We need to get back to the notion that there ARE consequences for one's behavior.
