No, nobody in my family are murderers...well..that I know of. :) I have sympathy for everyone, even his parents.

My sympathy nerve was stretched much too thin this year.

I think Tookie pretty much snapped it.

I'll try to be more generous in the coming year.

If my child took the life of someone's else's child (even without the life of my grandchild!), I would still love my child; BUT I would not torture the other parents with this kind of crap. I would remind my child that he did something abhorrent, and he would have to pay the consequences. I understand that you feel differently; but please don't criticize the rest of us for a difference of beliefs.
