    Completely disagree. The outcome of an individual like this doesn't dictate any election. Justice is based on the person's act and the ramifications of their act (s), not society as a whole.
    Mom's comin' 'round to put it back the way it ought to be.

    Anyone that thinks war is good is ignorant. Anyone that thinks war isn't needed is stupid.

    The ramifications of the act, as done by a number of people, are more serious than the act of murder as done by a number of people. The harmed party in this case would be society as a whole (I know.. I know). We make both criminal and punitive laws all the time where the goal is the to punish the wrongdoer for outrageous misconduct and to deter the wrongdoer and others from similar misbehavior in the future.
    What is my joy if all hands, even the unclean, can reach into it? What is my wisdom, if even the fools can dictate to me? What is my freedom, if all creatures, even the botched and impotent, are my masters? What is my life, if I am but to bow, to agree and to obey?
