I would prefer that we didnt have a system where Martha and her ilk were sent to a summer camp at all.  A system where justice wasnt heavy handed for the poor and lightly wrist slapped for the rich.  

THAT kind of system, is one that is fostered by the stance of the Bush Administration.

When violent crimes separate us from our loved ones, no amount of justice via the death penalty will ever rectify it.  The only thing it does is cause more suffering.

By the same token, justice MUST be done in a moral/social sense right?  So what is adequate justice?  Whats worse than death?  

Power concedes nothing without a demand. The limit of oppression is determined by the extent of the endurance of the oppressed.

Let the victims have at the violent criminals. Give them their choice of weaponry to use on them- knives, clubs, fire, or or the cowardly, guns. My choice would be a meat cleaver, but that's just me. To each his own. Nothing is quite as satisfying as hacking someone that has wronged you to DEATH. Granted, it doesn't exactly rectify the thing, but it sure makes you feel a lot better about it.

Agreed.  

Of all the enemies to public liberty, war is, perhaps, the most to be dreaded because it comprises and develops the germ of every other.

Ok, well for me empathy = being able to imagine something from someone elses point of view. Being able to imagine being killed or having someone you know killed. How many people have died in this "war" so far? Do you think Bush has any qualms about being responsible for thousands of deaths? I wasn't talking about not wanting to punish criminals. I was talking about being a mass murderer. I agree Kerry isn't the perfect answer, no argument on that. But to say Bush = Kerry just because they're all in politics...I don't think so.

politician=politician regardless of party affiliation. To think that Kerry would give any more of a shit about you than Bush is a redundant statement, Bush feeling good about 1000 of deaths? are we talking death row? fuck it I would sleep fine at night knowing I put most of the bastards to bed.

Well Jane all I am saying is that up on the hill its the good old boy network. And lets face it the ones who don't follow the heard regardless of their party affiliation don't last that long up there. You either get corrupt or die a quick death. I trust authority but whos's athority is the question.

uhm, y'all, that reminds me. Nancy Reagan on the wall in the main lobby in Springfield. What if they took you somewhere, and in the main lobby there was a three foot by four foot photograph of Nancy Reagan on the wall? -- Or was it four foot by five foot? I hope someone knows because that detail is bugging me. -- What if you were in that lobby for a little while on that day, and then they took you in the back and you never ever saw the lobby again? That was the funnest experience. I mean, how many people get to experience that, a complete and utter switcheroo in their whole life, like going to Narnia or wonderland. I think I was so vulnerable to that, I mean, the brainwashing thing.

The patriot, I agree with you that most people in politics are at least somewhat corrupt just by virtue of their position. In fact I think sometimes most people are full of it, and I get a really bad taste in my mouth when I think people are pretending to be someone they're not. I wonder how much of this is from straight and how much of it is just because it is repulsive. If anyone knows the answer to this please share this with me. Anyways though, I think that I still see one candidate as being the lesser of two evils, and plan to vote for him.
