| Well... I remain against the death penalty. But, that fact notwithstanding, there is no doubt that this man is guilty and he should face the full extent of the law, just like any other man in his "position."
I believe that what sparked my interest with this article is the whole relationship between Bush and the death penalty. His time as governor of Texas was one when the most inmates were executed. And then there's the case of Tim McVeigh... who no doubt deserved the full extent of the law and even petitioned the court for his own expedited execution.
But I've always wondered about the purpose of putting someone to death. That it is the maximum penalty for certain crimes in certain States notwithstanding... what does it accomplish?
Not to mention that, in McVeigh's case anyway, it shortcircuited any attempts at perhaps getting answers out of the man. In terms of accomplices anyway. __________________  Sunny
