McDog, yes I am oversimplifying things and I do know that. I will admit to doing a bit of trolling by doing that, however, I do believe in the death penalty and I believe we should revamp the way it is administered. Now, in the U.S. it can take YEARS from being sentenced to actually being executed, the exception was Tim McVeigh (spelling?) in the OK bombing case. He was executed in a much shorter period of time, The crime happened in 1995 and he was executed in 2001. Most live on death row for 20 years or so. We have to speed up the time between sentencing and carrying out said sentence. BTW the death row inmates live very well, they can have anything they want except for women for the rest of their lives. Meals, warm or cool depending on the season, place to live, TV, no work, and YOU pay for it.
