As you all know, my Daughter is pregnant.
She is Due in March and we are all getting very excited about it.
She had a Dr.s appt today and they did an ultrasound.
ITS A GIRL
Mom is doing great and baby looks wonderful.
God willing everything will go smoothly from here on out.
This morning, when I came to work there was a discussion on the justice system. More specifically about murders, child abusers, rapists, etc... and how our justice system isnt very good. A man who sits close to me was saying that a high number of these "poor" men and women were innocent, and wrongly imprisioned. I do agree that there are SOME. He went on to say that prisions dont work and the prisoner should be reformed.
Well, let me tell you all my opinion which by the way, was strongly disagreed with by this same man.
I believe that if you kill someone you should die. If you rape or molest anyone, be it a child or an adult you should die. If you harm someone you should be harmed in the same way.
I heard a lot of talk about due process, and that the reason the murders, rapists, and molesters are sitting in prision for years is for due process.
Well.... Lets say some murder/rapist decided he was gonna do harm to someone, lets say he thought about it for a week. Fine.. he gets a week of due process himself, then if he is found guilty by a jury of his peers he gets the death penalty. If he/she just decided on the spur of the moment to do whatever horrible act they did... well... as soon as the trial is over, march em to the chair. Why should my tax dollars feed and house this monster?
Of course I believe that public Hangings could curb a lot of the crap that is happening these days also.. but.. thats just my opinion.
When i stated my opinion this morning I got "facts" thrown at me about the hardship of todays prisioners, and due process, etc....
Finally I said, If your loved one was raped,murdered, or molested I guarantee you wouldnt be standing there defending those monsters. You would be like me, and want whoever did it dead or worse.
I understand that my opinions arent the norm or the most popular, but they are my opinions and there is generally a good reason behind why i have that opinion.
George Phillips of Meridian, Mississippi, was going up to bed, when his wife told him that he'd left the light on in the garden shed, which she could see from the bedroom window. George opened the back door to go turn off the light, but saw that there were people in the shed stealing things.
He phoned the police, who asked, “Is someone in your house?”
He said, “No.”
Then they said, “All patrols are busy - you should lock your doors and an officer will be along when one is available.”
George said, “Okay.”
He hung up the phone and counted to 30.Then he phoned the police again.“Hello, I just called you a few seconds ago because there were people stealing things from my shed. Well, you don't have to worry about them now because I just shot them,” and he hung up.
Within five minutes, six police cars, a SWAT Team, a helicopter, two fire trucks, a paramedic, and an ambulance showed up at his house, and caught the burglars red-handed.One of the policemen said to George, “I thought you said that you'd shot them!”
George said, “I thought you said there was nobody available!”
Don't mess with old people.
