Well, SURELY, the NEXT TIME they WILl kill someone! What happens when that STILL doesn't happen? Punish them anyway. and punish them absolutely! And, remember, they can NEVER be rehabilitated, or given an opportunity to do it again. Because they most certainly WILL! Of course with that logic, we should give the death penalty to ANY criminal deemed "violrent". Becaiuse if they don't kill now, they will sooner or later. The Constitution be damned! Cruel and unusual punishment be damned! No such thing! After all, MADD, says so. And the fact that MADD and the National Highway Transportation Authority's "facts"are not only wrong, but they are a deliberate fabrication and misrepresentation be damned too! Why would my government ever lie? Never mind that NHTSA is mandated by law to provide true and accurate statistics. That doesn't matter if the end justifies the means. after all, how can we expect EVERYONE to be bound by the law? Certainly not those whose propoganda we have accepted, or those causes we like! The law only applies to those we have reason to hate or wish to control. Oh, or those we hope to put at a disadvantage to enhance our OWN position. Because what **I ** want is really all that is important. So what if all I want is vengeance against anyone who I think may have, or might in the future hurt ME? Injustice? Never heard of it. Injustice is only done against ME! Everybody else gets anything they deserve, especially if *I*(or my mob) get to decide what they get!
