Being jaded in such matters is understandable. However, for some of us, HOPE springs eternal ... partly because of POTUS TRUMP and largely because God Almighty Yehovah really does appear to be using TRUMP in a major project trashing evil in high places. Given that, it is reasonable to hope.
I am prepared to be pleasantly surprised.
TO me, I don’t give up hope. I agree under the current paradigm those people would walk free. But if there is a major paradigm shift, everything changes, all bets are off, and anything could happen.
