Every time I think I can't be shocked any more.. a story like the GA one comes along. This is precisely the case where, if all that is alleged that they did is true, these folks should never seen the light of day again. I can't think of a single reason why any mercy should be shown.

Still, I wish that capital punishment were not available in the United States. Even for people who commit crimes like this.

I wish I could feel like that.. I wish I could be that adult. When it comes to kids getting hurt part of me thinks that some people just need killing.

I have friends that are appalled that someone as liberal as I am feels that way... albeit about a very narrow range of crime.
