A FIRST person murder vs something that has yet to occur??? Hell if Barney Fwanks should get AIDS as a result of his homosexual BEHAVIOR and ACTS and die horribly, I wouldn't waste my time on sympathy for him either. Gabrielle Giffords and the other folks had done nothing that would call for such a fierce retribution. So cut the Kunstler/Kuby approach.
And there you have it.
We rate our compassion for politicians based on their record.
Speak for yourself.
I rate my compassion for politicians based on whether they're politicians or not.
"But whether the Constitution really be one thing, or another, this much is certain--that it has either authorized such a government as we have had, or has been powerless to prevent it. In either case, it is unfit to exist." --Lysander Spooner, 1867
