Is it any wonder that people shoot up courtrooms? Shoot their adversaries at courthouses? Should we really be surprised at the actions of Brian Nichols and those like him?

Most of us have been lucky enough not have been wrung through the wringers of a court system. We may have felt we were wronged in a case but never to the extent that someone's life was at stake. Does it take a tragedy like this to open our eyes to the flaws in our judicial system? Where we find out that appeals don't count because they are only based on 'did the first judge follow the law?' And any new hearing keeps going before the same judge?

Suddenly I wonder, "is he really innocent?" about those gguys in prison.

IF someone had shot and killed MS 10 years ago, Terri would be safe today.

I really am concerned about that still happening. You know which side would be blamed in an effort to demonize.

In watching his recent appearances on television, he has a nervousness that might indicate he realizes his role must be played according to the script he's been given. Surely he also wonders about his usefulness if her death is accomplished.
