I'm against it. I can't see any good or even relief coming from it. It's a conflict of principle. Also, there are too many times here in the state where people have been wrongfully convicted and even executed--

Execution in United States Are You For It?
by jayhawk1 infrom the ap.... raleigh, n.c. - a man who killed his wife and father-in-law pinned his hopes on last-minute intervention from the governor or the courts as he awaited lethal injection early friday in the nation's 1,000th execution since capital punishment resumed in 1977. kenneth lee boyd, set to die at 2 a.m., spent the day receiving visitors, including two sons who watched him gun down their mother and grandfather in 1988. .
my questions are; are you for or against the death penalty?
what was your opinion of the death penalty as a jehovah's witness?.

ah, spark just keep on keeping on. Things usually have a way of getting better.
hmm...
I'm thankful for the customer service people at Sallie Mae loan servicing for not being bitches when I call and ask for my payments to be lowered...even though they work for a company that should be charged with extorsion.
I'm thanful for my friend that sends me fake suicide letters--I KNOW this sounds morbid and bad but they are hilarious.
I'm thankful for the guy at the corner store that always puts aside a few packs of my brand of cigarettes for me when he sees the store inventory is getting low.
I'm thankful for people still giving me freelance work.
I know I'm thankful for more but this is what I can come up with now. -

what do you think?
by nicbic ini'm getting the feeling my friend is going more into her jw life and very slowly cutting me out.
i have been maintaining contact whether or not i get responses so far.
is this the right action to take?

nic- defd is still a Witness and somehow it's cool for him to associate with apostates on line but he'll still defend JW rhetoric to the line.
I'm sorry for what you're going through. It could be you're the only showing her how "worldly people" can be good and caring. Just keep being a friend. She's going to do what she's going to do--whether it be give into the fear drilled in by the JWs or maybe at some point make a break. Just remember there's only so much you can do besides being her friend and letting her know you're a "true" friend. -

cool, there's a couple in Seattle (the Eyptian is still the best in my book) if you ever make it down this way.
Hope the streets aren't too icy up there. -

Like the way under traets me. She is a mean mean lady.
hmmm...see like I said before, contact me through pm if you have a problem with me or something I wrote to or about you. It's interesting that you bring me up in your thread though I hadn't posted to it until now. Like I said yesterday...read your past posts and mine as well and then go ahead and call me mean. I'm sure you won't see wrong on your part...but re-read everything anyway. -

stop posting on other people's threads about your problems and use the pm system. You're taking up time and space with personal matters not having to do with the subjects of the threads you post to.
