I should have a bigger problem with the death penalty; but I don’t. My real problem with the death penalty is that I think it should be more evenly distributed.
When some one kills or rapes they get (in many cases) the death penalty. OK. Those criminals destroyed 3-5 people’s lives, including the victim and the close relatives that deal with the after effects of the crime.
Bernard Ebbers, Ken Lay, Bernard Madoff, Robert Allen Stanford and their ilk have destroyed hundreds of thousands of poor people’s lives by stealing pension and retirement money, liquidating savings and assests, and that doesn’t even include the problems they have helped create in the world’s current economy.
How about a little death penalty for them? Can I get an Amen!?
Nah, they are white and wear suits slap ‘em on the wrist and send them back to their Manhattan penthouse suite.

Amen, brother!
And it's an even bigger travesty that Madoff gets to stay in his penthouse while he awaits trial. He should be in the county lockup.
Dear Julie,
Possession being 9 tenths of the law and all. . .
