If you'll read Genesis 4, you'll see that the purpose of that mark actually was to protect Cain from vigilante justice.

You're right, I forgot about that. Not the way it's worked here in Utah, historically, though. In this case, this was NOT vigilante justice. Not that that's a bad thing.

Is it better to warn millions of potential victims than to let one sicko live because he can't deal with the shame of it all? I say yes.

OK, so here's a guy. Served his time. Let's posit he's genuinely repentant, for the case of discussion.

He comes up to you, says, "Hunter112, I want to make my life right. What else do I need to do?"

What do you say?

Dan
