Not a defense for the crime, a case for why the punishment should be less than a murderer.
Why would society be better off without such a person if they never committed a crime before nor after the incident? Sounds incredibly harsh, and overly broad to me. I'd rather have this woman paying taxes then paying to feed, clothe, and house her in prison, or even pay for her defense in a captial case. To go even further, I'd rather have the victims family meet out the punishment of their choice themselves. If they want to kill her...let them. I'd like to see if they can stomach it.

I'd recommend trying to be more open to other peoples ideas, even if you disagree with them...but then that's just my opinion, I don't know everything like you apparently do. -- jon mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Monday, June 23, 2003, 2:11:09 PM, you wrote: DW> Drugs, drink, shock, fear or even poor reactions should never be a defense for DW> killing someone.
