Yes. I always believed that if you kill in cold blood, rape someone or molest a child that it should be an automatic death penalty. I always have ever since I was a child but I knew so many bleeding heart morons who would get offended at what I said and would counter with the following.

"But....but....but we can rehabilitate them!!! They are victims too!!! Victims of circumstance and of their environment!!!!"

"But....but....but that's inhumane!! That's un-Christian!!! I am a good Christian and we don't do that!!!!"

"But....but....but that's too harsh!!! We need to give them a second chance!!! They are good people deep down!!! We need to find a way to be merciful and show them that we care!!!"

This softness and lack of understanding of ugly truths has caused a soft and permissive society. Murderers are misunderstood and need to be forgiven, child molesters are misunderstood and are considered bigger victims than the children they ruined, rapists are victims of their environment and need to be rehabilitated. With these backwards thoughts is it any surprise that we are going downhill as a society?

No. It went downhill when it became offensive to call Jews' Jews.

This country has been on a downhill slide since they removed prayer and God from public schools.
