Does being pro death penalty mean you CELEBRATE the death of the murderer?
Advertisements [?]
I wouldn't think so. I wish the murderer didn't murder in the first place, which is far closer to the core problem than murdering the murderer! (that little viewpoint seems to have been grossly neglected...)

There is nothing TO celebrate. And if some people do, well I pity you.

But DUers have been called all sorts of things over one issue. A divisive one. It's happened on both sides. Tempers flare. Egos flare. Misunderstandings arise. Vicious circle.

And most of it allowed to remain, even if DUers now call each other inhuman vermin, revenge-lusting non-liberals, celebrators, or - good god - racists. And ALL of those things have been said.

What the fuck is happening on DU for us to sink to this level?!

I think we all need to step back and think. We've all been behaving badly.

Tomorrow is the big day. Don't expect me to be here wasting bandwidth. It's gonna be level 3, easily. And you're going to need it all.

Have fun in the usual bickering, whether you're for or against it.
