  I'm not against it, if done legally and by the same standards as previously executed people. 

  I have read in an article (or maybe comments on Facebook) that he ran because he owed child support and didn't want to go to jail.....   It is ALWAYS a stupid move to run from the cops.....you shouldn't get shot in the back, but you should never run either.....

That is written in the law And I do believe he can get death penalty in SC

  That is because we use facts and numbers.....   In South Carolina there are currently 26 blacks and 20 whites on death row.    Since 1976, the race of the victims of convicted killers on death row.....1,566 white victims....and 312 black victims.   Just throwing in a few facts

  Depends....   What do other crime victims get that kill people in cold blood?   I have no problem if he gets the death penalty because of the crime.......but not because he is a cop or because he is white.

  Actually I would be willing to bet money he gets close to max sentence.....   Will all the publicity this is going to get, he does not have a chance.....   Just like the poor officer in Ferguson.....he got a life sentence and was innocent. 

  Do you really believe that?   I hang around a lot of white people, a few are racist, some don't realize they are racist, and some are not at all.....but none of them would let a white guy off the hook for killing anyone because of their color. That is just crazy talk. It's 2015

  His stance on many issues has changed over the years.....His Dad is possibly clinically insane.....   I would like to hear him and Carson debate. I like what I have heard from Carson. I would like to hear more on his foreign policy. To me, we need someone strong in this area that can calm things down with or without force.

Happy Easter

That is a dang shame not one response back......   Happy Easter Smitty.....   Hope you enjoyed the day!

  Well your not going to be to popular with THAT opinion :D   But if you recall, I did the math in a previous post and the percent of racist emails was like .01 something......I believe I based it on 1 or 2 emails sent a day.

  You know, I have my own beliefs that I sometimes care to share and sometimes not so much. It seems these days when people are passionate about something they go to the extreme. Religous folks will make the claim you are going to hell if you don't believe as they do (or as the Bible says - or as they interpret it, or both), Gay people will claim that people that don't support gays or gay marriage are "haters".   I was always taught at a young age, you will get more people to listen to you if you talk TO them, not at them or down to them.   I would think people would have  figured this out by now.....after all, Christians want everyone to confess their sins, live by their rules so everyone goes to Heaven.....and Gays want acceptance.......   anyway, I'll call that thinking out loud.....   I apologize for getting off topic.....

    Spoken like a true Christian.......lol

We are always quick to blame morals and parenting......   Most of the shooters I can recall were just plain crazy......not sure you can "parent" crazy....   What I think kids don't understand is how serious everything is.....                                                        1984                                                          2015   get in fight 16 years old             licks at school                                             arrested   16 with beer at party                 cop makes you pour out                             arrested/ticketed

  I need to run up Shallow prong and see how it's doing

That is great advice if you believe in God. I was dating a girl who based on her childhood and how horrible it was did not believe in God. She was abused badly and both parents were drug dealers adn users....she was married at 14 with parents blessing to give you an idea.....   She has 3 kids, a single Mom and raises her kids with strict moral values. She does so because that is the right thing to do, not because she is afraid of burning in hell. Some people are good people because they are.....   I think if parents care about values, the technology is fine......Parents just need to be parents

  I looked at politic check.....   The things they claim are not true were minor.....   [Hidden Content]   This for example has 4 different ways you can calculate.....He was quoting 1 of the 4 with numbers that support what he was talking about.

Wish we knew where they were fishing.....Some drove a long ways I heard.

  He didn't flip flop.....He was using the law like it was designed. When you are assualted and attacked, you don't need stand you ground, you need self defense. In other words, stand you ground could not exist and Zimmerman would have still have a legal right to defend himself.   I knew what the definition was....lol   We need to be in some wars.......unless you like Christians and Jews being beheaded all the time. I think W Bush reacted the way he should have with the information given.   I would vote for Bush.......   You are never going to find a canidate that thinks exactly like you do......never

  The only thing I have heard him say about gun control is he didn't think the "stand your ground" law should of been appied to the Zimmermand case.....and I agree 100%, Zimmermand was attacked and used the "self defense" law. What are you speaking of?   Explain the Warmonger as well.....I don't recall Flordia fighting any wars ;)

That really was not directed at you, but at the attitude of all the police attention the last couple years.

  2013 Statistics   14,196 murders 79,770 rapes   During 2013, there were an estimated 11,302,102 arrests.......   Yet the media and some people want to focus on a few POSSIBLE bad cops.   That is a good statement for how screwed up the mind set of this country is.

  My boat may actually see the water this summer!!

I have no reason to believe it's not true.....Most thieves are dumb. Look at BISD and them wiring money to their personal account. As a banker, when you wire money you are required to have everything but a blood sample. That is about the easiest paper trail I can imagine. They were caught after they sent the first wire.   So, I bet they go down.

and why not two counts of attempted capital murder?
