    Okay----I'll tell you what-----The Law in Zurra is cracking down on these Alphabet People! Tonight, they're gonna EXECUTE an openly trangengendered Alphabet Lady at one of the many state pen-o-tentiaries here, just to set an example and Send a Message! Yup. So, yeah---contact your Congerssperson, Contact Biden, or somebody, to stop this witchhunt. Yup.2023-01-03.jpg

    It never ceases to amaze me how unevenly the death penalty is applied. I wonder how many knife-wielding murderers get relatively short sentences, or at least avoid the death penalty.

    I used to favor the death penalty, but ultimately came to oppose it as I decided there was no way to correct mistakes.

    Okay----You kids make a coupla good points. But see---a message MUST be sent to scofflaws---and that includes Alphabet People---This could be YOU, so don't push your luck! Yup. Last month, they had to EXECUTE a POC, even though it'd served 20 or 30 years on death row, and claimed they were completely reformed! Yup. But that ploy didn't work. No exceptions, no excuses in Zurra. You want Reparations? Here's your reparations---for alla the damage You People've done in St Lo, the last few years! Yup. Back 100 years ago, they usta just get the Rope. Now they give 'em a Fair Trial. Fair to the Lawyers, that is. They all make good money, doing that stuff. But yeah----watch your step in Zurra. Hope that helps you some. Thankk Mee.

But yeah---Hanged by the neck until dead, in Walla Walla. Yup. Hope that helps you some. Thankk Mee.2022-08-15 (10).jpg

    I wouldn't lose any sleep over clearly guilty multiple murderers or torture killers being put to death, but most of them are not (the Green River Killer, Dennis Rader (BTK), and others too numerous to mention.

    Not only can't mistakes be corrected, but the laws are shockingly capricious--black getaway drivers like Brandon Bernard, and others whose participation in murders is merely peripheral are routinely convicted of capital crimes and executed. So I'm a staunch opponent of the death penalty.

    Here's a few edited panels from the graphic novel Gender Queer. I'm guessing lots of parents don't care to support the use of public funds to teach kids in the 12 to 18 age range how to give blowjobs.

    I could think of many better ways for the government to spend our money.

    There are plenty of books in the public library system that I don’t care to support specifically, but I recognize that in the city the size of St. Louis with 320,000 inhabitants, there will be different point of view from, and different needs than, my own.

    I’m fine with this book being in a public library system.

    I’ll go one step further —my kid who is 12 years old and up can read it, I wouldn’t care.
