Are we supposed to feel for this mass murderer? Good riddance! Great pity it took so long, relatives of the murdered must have suffered a lot during the long wait. As President Jackson said, there are three good things that hold USA together: the flag, motherhood and capital punishment. Pull any of them and America collapses! 195.70.48.24212:37, 2 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
