Maxx, I appreciate the response...
I will say that I am a bit tired and so instead of responding to each and every point, I will just agree to disagree on this one. There is no sense in my diving into an issue that could offend some and jeopardize my relationships with many here (which probably would not happen but could, and I don't want to risk that).
I will just say that I believe very strongly in justice and consequences, but that are brought along by non-violent means. Call me a "tree-hugger," call me an idealist, call me a fool, I can live with those but there are some things that my concious would never let me live with...
Ah well, I tried not to trip over any soapboxes so I hope I at least succeeded in doing that
Take er easy
Scott T.
