I just got out of jail (well, about three hours ago) for an old warrant for writing a bad check (back in 1988 ). And while my 'crime' was a minor one, I had the 'pleasure' of being in a holding cell with this guy.....

If you don't support the death penalty, this guy will make you reconsider. :evil:

By-Tor, in some instances, I do agree with the death penalty. I tell you this, if they don't keep him away from general population in prison, he will end up with the death penalty though!

I didn't think so. I think you would defend a kid from a man like that with your life.

Even if he doesn't get the death penalty, he'll get his in jail. Even criminals have a 'code of conduct' and child rapists are the lowest of the low, even to them.

After due consideration, I have deleted this overly harsh, 'more heat than light' post.

Zivo, admit it. You just wanted to post some pictures from your camping trip :roll:
I remember watching in amazement as Geddy sang, played bass, and played the keyboards with his feet. I thought, "Who is this guy???"

Hehe, I'm sorry. I understand what you're saying and it seems the government and society as a whole has certain moral obligations towards prisoners. People with your opinion are typically ignored, I guess you're just old-fashioned ;) As for me, I don't have a position on the subject. Then again, I don't pay taxes yet!

Damn! I wanted to say the last bit (about the taxes). :D
Yeah, when you realize that some of your hard earned bread goes to keep scum alive it makes you wonder why you shouldn't just rip off the government that is ripping you off. Yeah, expensively sustain a murderers life, while telling me I shouldn't see a tit or catch a buzz.
