well, the 2nd happens all the time, especially thanks to "3 strikes", and because most people in the US legal system are done for little more than "walking while black".

Well they crucified _him_. I believe his crime was wanting to get rid of moneylenders.

'They', huh? There you go again, trying to shrug off the blame...

This comment brought to you by Erin's recent discovery of the site I'm not racist, but.

Don't get me wrong, if I'd have been there I'd have crucified him twice. Betraying his kind like that, boy had no respect!

The second one I have to wonder though if the guy feels slighted. He now gets 3 square meals every day and has a roof over his head.

No, I don't agree with it, obviously, but hey; I hope the guy actually has a better life where he is than where he was.

yeah. like the guy who swore to rob a bank of $1 so he could receive life-saving medical treatment in prison that he absolutely could not afford as a free man.


Gotta love America.

I *wish* I could say I'm surprised. Unfortunately I lived near New Orleans for just about 20 years.

Caddo Parish is in the northern part of the state and much more conservative (think Biblical justice) that the more southern parts.

He's probably living here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angola_Prison

we need a new disestablishment, seperate the government and the judiciary from the economy.

Uh, no. The fraud person should be in the worst prison ever and kept there for life.

The homeless man should be given time in a shelter.

My thoughts.
