I'm not saying that it would be right for someone to take this judge and work him over with an aluminum baseball for a few hours, but I would understand where that person was coming from.

I like what you're not saying. Might get their attention and provide a reference point for understanding some of the
agony these children go through who appear before them.

Like you, I don't condone random, senseless violence.

But like Sam Kinison said, "I know what turns Mr. Hand into Mr. Fist".

I can only get beyond such maddening things as this by believing that somehow, someway the cruelty you inflict or allow to be inflicted upon another in this life will be returned to you.

I can only hope that it will be maginfied and multiplied.
