Isn't killing children pretty barbaric?  I find it ironic that
the criminals who show their complete contempt for the law use it
to their advantage to prevent appropriate punishment.  Of course
the lawyers always get paid (talk about the true bottom feeders).

I was also interested in the news coverage on this.  Channel 5
news had the protests as their ``Top Story'' devoting the entire
section (about half the show) to it.  They didn't present a
single item from anyone except people against the death penalty.
It reminded me of the pre-election coverage where they would give
10 seconds to Bush (generally unflattering), and 10 minutes to
Clinton.

:Too bad Dodd didn't put a better fight when captured.  He might have
:gotten his neck broken then which would have saved everyone a lot of anguish.

But then the arresting officers would have been crucified for
police brutality.
