Just a moment 3Dee, lets back the truck up for a moment. I disagree. Just because the death penalty may be off the table does not equate to there being justice. I have no problem with an eye for an eye. If I follow your definition, any retribution for a crime committed can be called revenge. A person breaks a law, that person has the revenge of society to undertake. This bill simply removes one type of 'revenge'. Revenge is what it must be called by your definition. Once one becomes a criminal, he earns his penalty, therefore, it cannot be called revenge. The criminal has earned whatever sentence given him. Justice comes when the judicial system can say, without a doubt, the person is indeed guilty of whatever supposed crime and the penalty is bestowed up them. If that penaltly may be imprisonment or something more severe, depends upon the offense. That to me is justice. Please don't ask me what country I live in, for it is this one, a country that gives me the right to have my opinion and express it. Thanks for what I am sure will be a lively debate. Red.
