In your spirit it should not feel right...Just know this...God has put into every mans spirit the knowledge of Him. It is up to us to choose the way He provides...It is not up to us to Judge what God allows.

That’s true, I haven’t, and I honestly can’t say how I would feel in that case. However, I’d like to think I could offer forgiveness. I’m not saying I don’t want severe punishment, but I’m not the type to demand an eye for an eye.

I dont know if they stilldo...

But at one time the judge would don the black hat ans say...

You will be taken from this place to a place of execution and there you will be hanged by the neck until dead...

and may God have mercy on your soul...

Something like that...

I don’t take that as an explicit endorsement of capital punishment.

I’ve had it happen to me, growing up in Governor Carey’s New York. I remember a murdering bastard being let out in seven years to terrorize his old neighborhood and I realized that that bastard Carey didn’t give a shit about people like me.

Every time one of these murdering bastards gets it, my heart skips a beat.

I don’t rejoice in someone being put to death

We are in the minority.

As I have always said about the death penalty:

“While the death penalty may not be a deterrent, it is an indisputable fact that the convicted party will never, ever, be afforded the opportunity to again kill someone”.

I'm glad we got rid of this guy in just over 7 years. But it's pathetic that 7 years passes for "haste" in a case like this.

Does anyone know how long it took for them to put Tim McVeigh out of our misery? Seems like they dispatched him pretty quick too. Wonder if it was because originally it was suspected he had a middle eastern accomplice.

Just curious.

Wishing all could be “speedy”, along with the “speedy trials”.

Definitely strikes me as 1 of the quickest crime -> execution journeys in my lifetime here.

Is it because he was a mass/serial murderer? I thought that, but so many serial killers have gotten off with decades of life, if they are ever killed.

Uh oh - maybe....it’s because he’s black? I just realized what seems to be different (besides openly terrorizing a whole region with random long-range shootings). Uhoh, don’t tell the liberals.
