But he was. He didn't kill the guy until his fear of others following the example of not paying outweighed his fear of being executed. Without the DP he would have killed the guy alot sooner. I know, after all he is my loan shark guy. ggg

<GGG>

How many innocents will die because you refuse to kill those who a jury of their peers have decided deserve to die? This is the question you and other opponents need to answer.

I don't know how many will die. None, I hope. But if we execute the killer, one life will DEFINITELY be lost. I don't think you can put lives on a scale. When you start thinking one life is worth more than another ... well, I don't want to go down that road.

Have a good weekend.
