I love the death penalty


iconIt comes as no surprise that a jury from the conservative land of Pat Robertson (where your's truly grew up by the way) would quickly convict John Allen Muhammad for the multiple murders in Virginia, DC, Maryland and Alabama. I would be very surprised if they don't come through with a death sentence.

Virginia is very tough on criminals. We have no parole and are second in executions behind Texas. (Per capita, methinks we beat them.) I can only hope that the future executions of serial killers Muhammad and Malvo will help us one day gain the number one spot. While my liberal friends have stopped short of calling my fondness for the death penalty disturbing, they have told me that my state pride is a little misplaced.

ASIDE: I am reminded of a nice Arkansas girl I met in a bar one night. We were having a lovely conversation and really hitting it off. That is until she said something about derogatory about Texas. I blurted out "Well, you have to admire their willingness to follow through with the death penalty." The look of shock and awe on her face was enough to tell me that I'd lost her. I tried to just let it go. I told her we should agree to disagree, but after about 10 more minutes she just couldn't drop it. Oh well.

While we were watching the news the other day, I exclaimed to the Wonderful Spouse, "I vote for the pine box" (this after JAM's attorney told the jury that they were sending him to a box, the only question is whether it is made of concrete or pine).
