He doesn't even deserve this much. My friend would be 30 next year, but he still gets to breathe. She was a wonderful person with the best future ahead of her. Her parent's house is now like a shrine. How would you feel knowing your child has been dead 13 years? Her grave never goes without flowers. If you really knew every single detail of this horrific murder, and if you were there to know they were forced to have a closed casket funeral because of what he did to her.... I really don't think someone who really knows what happened would really be in support of this demon. I've spoken my peace here, and in a way I'm grateful that you have this little blog going on with his words. But somehow, I still don't see justice.

But as they are apparently only strong enough to support two items of laundry, I doubt whether they could be used for anything else.

I read today that Rick Perry, governor of Texas, is trying to lure people from Washington (where the death penalty has just been suspended) to live in Texas, where "we believe in the sanctity of death".<br /><br />Words fail me.

The more I read about the US the more I realise just how fortunate I am to live in two countries which are so much more enlightened. Don't get me wrong. When I was last in California I found the people lovely (even though anyone person who ate in a diner ate enough for breakfast to feed an African village for a week). But so much about the country and it's attitudes (from creationism over science to the right to shoot pretty much anyone you feel like - provided they vote Republican) and the way it treats people as you describe (probably calling themselves Christians whilst doing it) just sickens me. I know. I should have just not commented. Sometimes I let my heart get the better of my head.
