It is much more powerful to seek Truth for one's self.  Seeing and hearing that others seem to have found it can be a motivation.  With me, I was drawn because of much error and bad judgment on my part. Confronting one's own errors and bad judgment is a very life altering situation.  Confronting the errors and bad judgment of others is usually hypocrisy.

$145,000 (roughly) per year to keep him locked up.  All taxpayer funded.

$100 (being very generous) to pay the County Flogger/Caner.*

Which is more cruel and unusual: being robbed and shot or literally getting your ass whipped for robbing and shooting someone?

stay safe.

* - The County could collect more than $100 in sales taxes from the food and trinkets vendors that show up on flogging day.  Not that flogging should ever become a revenue-raising event like speed traps are.

If cowardly and dishonorable men sometimes shoot unarmed men with army pistols or guns, the evil must be prevented by the penitentiary and gallows, and not by a general deprivation of a constitutional privilege.

Hey you kids!! Get off my lawn!!!

They keep making this eternal vigilance thing harder and harder.  Protecting the 2nd amendment is like playing PACMAN - there's no pause button so you can go to the bathroom.

Seems fair to me. They broke into someone's home and shot two people.

Like rats and politicians, it's not just what they steal, it's the damage they do in the process.

Besides, 93 years is just the book value. An appeal can cut that down, and I'm curious when the crooks will be eligible for parole.
