Imette



I don't believe in the dealth penalty.

I firmly believe that we as human beings do not have the right to take the life that God gave.

But something horrible happened to one of my friends this past week.

Terribly, horribly unspeakable.

I am against the death penalty.

But if I did believe in the dealth penalty, that sucker or suckers would fry. Forget lethal injection- I want to hear the snap, crackle and pop of vengeance.

I want the bastards to beg for mercy for hours and hours.

I want them to know exactly what they did, and literally suffer the consequences of their actions.

And although I know that executing such vengeance would not bring Imette back, maybe it would help just a little.

Just to have them be on the receiving end.

Of course, my more rational side says that such actions don't solve anything, and violence only begets violence. My more rational side says that mercy is a guide on the path to righteousness, no matter the pain inflicted. In fact, the greater the pain, the greater the mercy, the greater the righteousness.

At the end of the day it's all moot since I have not the means nor the actual bastards to carry out such thoughts.

It's all just wishes.

I wish Imette left this world peacefully.

We love you Imette. God bless you.
