I will celebrate by reminding my child that we live in a country governed by the rule of law, where the justice system does not permit heinous murderers to roam in marauding bands of rapists, thieves, and crooks.

When she asks me what just resolution society has for heinous criminals, or how we can reconcile with raping murderers, or gruesome brutes, I will tell her that we can't. I will tell her there are limits to who society can reconcile with in this life and when those limits are passed we might just have to let them pass on to what ever is after this life.

I hope that will give her the sense of confidense that justice is on the side of the innocent, that society will protect her and keep her safe as long as she is innocent, and that if she chooses the life of a perpetrator, she will understand that she has chosen to be on the other side of the justice equation.

When she asks me for an example, I will tell her like the founder of the worst gang in American history; like the founder of the LA Crips.
