[QUOTE="hearts and roses, post: 318566, member: 2211"] [SIZE=4][COLOR=teal]From my own experience, I don't feel many people would be thinking in terms of "eye for an eye". And often, after a person like this is executed for his misdeeds, I don't think many people end up feeling as if the scales have somehow been balanced. I think, more often than not, most of us just feel that the execution just adds to the tragedy they've endured.[/COLOR][/SIZE] [SIZE=4][COLOR=teal][/COLOR][/SIZE] [SIZE=4][COLOR=teal]I cried when difficult child's predator was sentenced to 10 years. Yeah, I cried for his losses as well as ours and I cried for his little 4 year old daughter who'd been robbed of her father; what he could have been if he wasn't such a screw-up. But he made his choices, just like Muhammad, out of a demented state of mind or out of hate or whatever.
