I'm with you on punishment for murderers and rapists, but why is a crack whore worthy of death?

Sue,
WOW! There are few people I could care less if they still grace this earth
or not. John, I would not view as one of those. He did ruffle some feathers,
but not worthy of death. If a person is going to upset me, they would have
to be a murderer, rapist, crack whore. You know, that type. But, one that
uses verbab to get under my skin would not warrant a death penalty. I could
give a rats ass.
I do feel for you Sue. Time to let the man rest in peace, and find his
positive side. Heck even I can do that with people I don't agree with.
Matt
