Frankly, it’s not her right to determine whether the monsters who clubbed her half brother to death get out of jail free. And, she is damned arrogant to think that it is. If she wants to be a bleeding-heart do-gooder, she can do as she pleases. But, society has the right — and the responsibility — to keep the miscreants behind bars where they belong. Jesus can love them (and vice versa) just as well there as back out on the streets.

Absolutely right. She acts as if her own family was the only victim. Society at large was the victim as well and trumps her call for leniency.

I hate to say it but I and others I know have remarked on this foolish strain of Christianity which goes beyond spiritual forgiveness or moving on, to actual REAL forgiveness and embracing and apologia of and for killers who are often master manipulators.

It’s not for her to decide, as she was not the ACTUAL victim and frankly she poorly represents half-siblings throughout the country by calling her brother’s killers “brothers.”
