Reading that article, I started to wonder if Adam is transsexual, as he identifies so strongly with girls, to the point of stating he wishes he was born a girl. ...which would speak to gender identity rather than sexual orientation, two very different issues in my mind. linz -- A conservative is just a liberal who's been mugged.

Jane Fonda's actions were well documented. There is plenty of room for anyone to call her a traitor based on those well-documented actions. Absolutely. Whether she's truly remorseful for her actions or not doesn't matter a whole lot in my opinion either. Our actions oftentimes haunt us for a very long time. Hers will always be glaring like a big T on her forehead. It's how it should be. linz -- A conservative is just a liberal who's been mugged. A liberal is just a conservative who's been to jail

I understand that there are bigger problems, but how can his teacher allow him to sing this song and not allow another student to sing SnoopDogg's "Drop It Like It's Hot?" Or Buffet's "Why Don't We Get Drunk and Screw?" (Or you could insert any number of other songs here) I think that's just silly. We all went to school, and we weren't turned into little clones of the model student. When we sang songs like, "Why don't we get drunk and screw...." the teacher would say things like, "Y'all. Stop it." But she really didn't mean it very often, because those were the songs we listened to. What's important is that kids, while they DO have to learn that there are rules, also have to grow and develop. School should not stifle their social development so that they can teach math....or whatever. -- A conservative is just a liberal who's been mugged.

Isn't that, uh, fatal? I thought there was some kind of poisoning going on around that level...? Yeah....it typically pretty well puts one under the table anyway. Death is surely a consideration. But this girl was still awake, talking, but not walking. She also took 24 Benadryl.... silly girl. BUT....the MORE important thing is that TODAY is MATCH DAY!!! Means somebody found out where he's going to be starting his residency in July. Guess that's why he's not hangin' out here this afternoon.... linz -- A conservative is just a liberal who's been mugged. A liberal is just a conservative who's been to jail

It does not appear that it's a sanctity-of-life matter for most people. I don't think that "sanctity" of life is the issue either. At least for me it's not. But there is a "value" of life issue. I value my life, though I don't consider it "sacred." I think people can do very, very bad things and still have a life that is of value. It's not a spiritual or moral issue in that sense. It's just that to take someone's very existence away, there's gotta be a damn good reason, imho. While child abuse (physical or sexual) is horrible, it's not enough to warrant execution, imho. It, like so many other things, isn't black and white. Ya' know, we could go back to cutting off people's hands for stealing too....stealing is bad, after all. -- A conservative is just a liberal who's been mugged.

Predators should be exterminated. But there are all KINDS of predators. Some predators kill people. Some predators rape people. Some predators rape children. Some predators steal the life savings of old people. How are you deciding which group of predatory people should be executed? I'm personally okay with people who rape AND kill other people being executed....because the victim is dead. It's still not a logical response on my part. It's emotional....because I don't like to think of that person being alive when his victim is dead. So you don't like to think of a person who rapes children being alive....what about a person who fondles children? How about the person who has "consensual" sex with a 15 y/o? a 12 y/o? What about a person who rapes an adult? Or serially rapes adults? How do you make those decisions? Remember Ronald Gene Simmons who killed his family on Christmas day in 1987? One of his victims was a very good friend of mine. I'm glad he was executed, because I like knowing that he's just GONE. Doesn't give any justice to my friend Renata, though, or her husband Billy or her son Trae....he'd be grown now. A child who is molested still has a life. Her/his life is altered, but most of us have things that alter our lives. It's horrible that children are abused, but I just can't put that crime in the "execute the bastard" category, except for in the instances in which the child dies. linz -- A conservative is just a liberal who's been mugged.

The South accounts for 82% of all executions in the US. Yet the murder rate keeps increasing there. The Northeast accounts for less than 1% of all executions, yet murder is down 5% there. So the data doesn't support that. It baffles me how often these statistics are ignored by people who support executions. It's clear to me that the desire to execute some people is based on an emotional need rather than on the idea that execution deters certain crimes. It's been demonstrated repeatedly that it's more expensive to execute a person than to keep him in prison, and it does NOT deter the crimes it punishes. That being said, I don't have a strong opinion about execution as punishment either way....even if it doesn't make good financial or social sense. linz -- A conservative is just a liberal who's been mugged.

My thoughts exactly. -- A conservative is just a liberal who's been mugged. A liberal is just a conservative who's been to jail

I think a difference should be made between child molesters and pedo's. The first category can not be healed and should therefor be punished severely and without remorse. The second category falls under sexual orientation and something can be done about this. Therefor they should be punished and treated. I'm not following you here. If a pedophile acts on his sexual urges towards children, then it is child molestation. He he only fantasizes, then no crime has been committed. It's been a few years since I worked in this field, but unless there's some new intervention that I'm not aware of, then treatment is rarely successful. To say that "pedophilia" fall under sexual orientation???? I don't think so. linz -- A conservative is just a liberal who's been mugged. A liberal is just a conservative who's been to jail

I think it prob'ly goes without saying that they'll get poked plenty in the prison system.... I think there's plenty of punishment waiting for child molesters among the inmates. linz -- A conservative is just a liberal who's been mugged. A liberal is just a conservative who's been to jail

If we're gonna kill child molesters, why not thieves? Why not people who drive excessively fast because it's fun....even though they know they're putting other people's lives at risk? I could come up with all sorts of people that we could start killing if we wanted to be darn sure they wouldn't do the same thing again. But that would be a pretty costly solution. linz -- A conservative is just a liberal who's been mugged. A liberal is just a conservative who's been to jail
