McVeigh vs Death Penalty

by Amazing in

jw
friends

i am a policitcal conservative, at least a fiscal conservative and sociel moderate.

i support the death penalty, but i agree that our judicial system needs to overhaul how wwe treat criminals to achieve better rehabilitation results.

and of course, withhold the death penalty in cases where there could be doubt.. in mcveigh's case, i believe that he deserves the death penalty.

Bigbio--I don't think you have a clue.Tell me please of
what power did McVeigh have over anybody? He was
not a coward, misguided but not a coward. His beef was
with the government, wasn't that who Washington and
Jefferson had a beef with? Was there innocent children
killed then? Truman in just two swift acts killed more
innocent childern than anybody I know of, now their's a
coward, didn't even have the balls to fly the plane.

McVeigh saw Waco and Rudy Ridge and was sick and
angry about it. But the final straw was Clinton signing
the assualt rifle ban. Personally I think all guns should be banned hey i'm a pacifist. But McVeigh was alerting
the country that a right he believed in and was given us
was being taken away and sure as shit it will happen.
Within 20 to 25 years guns in this country will be banned.
At that time 25 to 30 percent of the people will regard him
as a freedom fighter and he will ascend to hero status
among them. THIS WILL HAPPEN

Just to remind you Jefferson wrote the 2nd amendment
so that the government would FEAR the people. The people
should have enough power to over throw their government.
With that in mind every tax paying citizen of the U.S. should
have their own Stealth Bomber in their drive way.

Last thing, finally here in PHX they have convicted a mother
of negligent homicide because her 10 month old daughter
drowned in her CARE. (Child drownings here are of epidemic
proportions in PHX).Mothers statement after verdict "I'm MAD
because they don't do anything to all of the other people
(whose children have drowned) I was thinking I would
be found 100 percent not guilty" Tell me wasn't her
daughter an innocent child, Will her loving mother get
the death penalty--25 years to life--10 to 15 oh no
she'll get probation to a three year prison term. Any
parent who leaves their small child alone around water
are just as guilty as McVeigh hell even more they are
the INNOCENT childs parents for gods sake.
Oh I love it "TRUTH, JUSTICE and the AMERICAN WAY
Peace out---Mark

DannyBear--yes i'm a pacifist--According to Emy I also am
racist--were she came up with that I have no clue.
I don't have much time so just a point that came right
off the bat. A sheriff was elected, he ran for office he
wanted it. My freedoms I don't take for granted, either
may I add did McVeigh---Freedom is what the man died
for it really is that simple.Now I would have not did what he
did, but should I thank and applaud him for standing up
for the second amandment--it is after all one of my so
called freedoms,that personally should be over turned.
Their is freedom and then their is FREEDOM as
Ritchie Havens sings---FREEDOM-FREEDOM-FREEDOM
Peace and Love--Mark

DannyBear-I would never fight for my country, thats like
dying for the watchtower or pope or whatever other silly
things man fights over. I sure the hell ain't going to risk
my life so you can buy cheaper gas, go out and get a
freakin' bike. I don't care if you have two VCR'S and a DVD
player and a and a and a and a I'm not dying for it and I'm
not killing somebody so you can have it or keep it.

Tip O' Neal once said all politics is local. Being thats the
case the greatest President in my lifetime was????????
NIXON, you know why? Because a year before I was to be
drafted he stopped the draft. My brother did two tours over
there and I my friend was not going to go over and shoot people that were doing my FAMILY no harm. A president a
senate or a congress has no right to tell me to go kill my
fellow man.The only reason to fight and or die for is to
protect your FAMILY.

McViegh gets the needle
Hansen gets a deal
Garza gets the needle
Sammy (the bull) gets a deal
Gambino still breathes and feels(I was going to say
wheel and deal but all of us Americans know that it is
impossible for him to do that from the countries most secure federal prison)
TRUTH, JUSTICE and the AMERICAN way.
Just going through those names alone will show all
you pukin' death penalty advocates that it is not what
you do that gets you the needle. It's the lack of what you
have to give the government back that makes them take
your breath away.

Princess--Great team--A memory of the great one in
right field. A ball hit into the right field corner in shea.
Mets had a runner on first Clement racing into corner
to dig it out. No way he's getting the man at the plate.
With his back to the plate he wields and throws a one
hop strike to the plate. HE'S OUT. Greatest throw I ever
saw in my life. Murphy and Kiner where speechless.

On Ryan my sweet he sucked big time in 69. I was 12
it was trully a summer I'll never forget. Mets down by
9.5 games in 3rd week of August . Behind an allstar
team in Chicago, and they won by 9 . Then beat Aaron
and highly favored Braves in first year of playoffs. On
to vaunted Birds given no chance. Seaver beaten in
first game--Mets left for dead---but you gotta believe
Mets go on to win 4 in row.

Hi Larc,
Down in Baltimore in the early 70's the Birds pulled
off three 20game winners twice. I believe the second
year they just missed having 4. Don't recall all the
pitchers but some where--Palmer for sure--then
McNalley , Cuellar, Torres, I believe there was one more
in the mix can't recollect the name though. As for pitchers
though "Spahn and Sain" must have been great because
Milwaukee would throw those two and "pray for rain"
Ah-grass fields-double headers-and two hour rain delays
the good ol' days.

Being a long time Met fan my team will be donimated
by the NL. One other thing if anyone else posts the
players must be retired.
1b--Lou Gierigh was there ever another first baseman
2b-Jackie Robinson all things considered Jackie just
might be the best player of all time.
SS-Ernie Banks-Mr. Cub-hey lets play two
3b-Mike Schmidt- Philly fans are the worst fans I have
ever seen they had no idea what they were witnessing.
Now the trouble begins-i'm picking the outfield by actual
postion so no Mantle, Mays, and Snyder can exist.
LF-Pete Rose--I never liked Rose but most hits and he
was a winner
CF-Willie Mays--He was simply the best player I ever saw
if Jackie wasn't the best ever Willie was
RF-Roberto Clemente-He played the came with such joy
and grace, remember in those NL all star outfields of the
sixties Aaron got moved to left not Clemente(he died much
too young)
C-Johnny Bench-Didn't like Bench either but not going
to pick a Yankee and Campanella was in a wheel chair.
LHP-Sandy Koufax the dandy little left hander was trully
un-hittable
RHP-Bob Gibson the horse give him the ball and get the
hell out of the way. (can you believe I didn't pick Seaver I can't)
Yeah I know no Ruth, Williams, Yankee Clipper, or Mantle
but 3 are Yankees and I liked Yaz more than Williams so
there you go.

Go Ahead And Jump!

by Seven in

it is the most basic thing about us; we share it with all living beings.

at each moment, millions of events take place inside our bodies and inside our minds that are designed to help us stay alive.

until the present, at least, the forces that are life-preserving have been stronger than the forces that are life-destroying.

Princess--Thank you for the words by David Conroy.
Actually I'm one of those people who fight it on mostly
a daily basis. One time when it seemed there was no
use a friend who couldn't believe how I was crumbling
right in front of her eyes(I can usally put on such a good
front even the pro's can't tell) told me all you HAVE to do
Mark is breath. How simple and true. Yet for people who
have been to the ledge and even jumped at those times
the simple act of breathing is a major-major chore, hell
you have to expand your lungs and that takes energy and
effort you just don't have. So from a guy who really has
a great many feelings for you heres a HUGE and VERY
VERY LONG HUG. It seems that when I get to the end
all I really need is to be held---so considered yourself
still being held my dear with EVA singing "It's a Wonderful
World" very softly in the background.
Love always Mark
