The Death Penalty for criminals or Not?
Our country went crazy over the Death Sentence that was handed down to a severely brain damaged woman named Teri Schiavo. Unfortunately she was married to a man who later claimed she said she did not want to live in that kind of condition??? So he said. She had been awared a substantial amount of funds to CARE for her needs. Much of the funds that were specified for caring for her were used for Court Costs that finally decided she would be Sentenced to Death by starvation and dehydration. That decision to sentence a innocent brain damaged person to death by a Judge on behalf of the great State of Florida is immoral and unethical. Personally I think the State had no business allowing her husband to use those funds awarded for her care to pay for Court costs! Secondly the Death sentence she was handed down for the crime of being Brain Damaged was entirely too severe! The Death Penalty is supposed to be a Punishment for criminals NOT for the handicapped…
