Scott Peterson
Scott Peterson is on Death Row(deservedly so in my opinion) while OJ Simpson is on a golf course.
Both crimes were brutal and horrific,yet one killer is in jail and the other is chasing a little white ball.
Anyone have any thoughts on this?

Yes. Peterson is stupid and Simpson is smart.

You're blaming conservatives for this injustice??? Hah..thats a laugh.

Conservatives support the survival of the richest. And don't give a damn about the poor. The poor are just lazy bastards according to you. Not very enlightened at all.

BTW- the statue of liberty is just another masonic symbol

Once again Hevusa.. WHEN you reward idle people for doing nothing w/ your "go on the dole to recieve 80% of your previous salary" no one will contribute to society, it will collapse, and all will be poor. (Which is obviously where Sweden is headed...We keep pointing that out...) Once again... I grew up on minimum wage for awhile, but we WORKED ourselves out instead of depending on free handouts from the state. So... explain this to me... How do I hate the poor? .. Just because I don't buy into lies from bureaucrats who would shove money into our faces just so they could have greater power and control in our lives???

If you really CARED about the poor you would:
www.lp.org

Establish a dollar-for-dollar tax credit for contributions to private charity
"If the federal government's attempt at charity has been a dismal failure, private efforts have been much more successful. America is the most generous nation on earth. We already contribute more than $125 billion annually to charity. However, as we phase out inefficient government welfare, private charities must be able to step up and fill the void.

To help facilitate this transfer of responsibility from government welfare to private charity, the federal government should offer a dollar-for-dollar tax credit for contributions to private charities that provide social-welfare services. That is to say, if an individual gives a dollar to charity, he should be able to reduce his tax liability by a dollar. "

www.lp.org -

This way charity could be more discretionary, and the truly needy would recieve funds.

It is sad if you really believe that. I think you need to travel a bit overseas... especially to Sweden. Have you ever been out of the country?

People like you Hevusa disgust me. I grew up in a dirt poor family; I have lived in six different houses and two apartments. I have seen my mom die of cancer and my step mom get half of her brained removed, which has left her crippled. My dad is a conservative, he NEVER, NOT ONCE went on welfare. The funny thing is my family also has eight kids. My dad got off his ass and realized "Hey I have a family to support I am going to get off my ass and get a job to support my family." People like you make me sick. I grew up in one of the most dirt poor families you can grow up in; we have gotten evicted a few times and were forced to live with relatives. Yet, my dad never took one hand out, which is a true American. Not these lazy ass bastards who take advantage of our welfare system and not getting off their damn ass and try to find a job. Remember Laziness is not a handicap.

Don't you tell me that Republicans are all about the rich, they just have more morals than Democrats could ever dream to have. There are only certain situations when you should be on welfare, anybody can find a job if they wanted it. To say that you cannot find a job is completely ridiculous and you are a fool to believe that. Wait, look who I’m talking to the conspiracy master, the person that thinks the lazy should be rewarded by the government. You are very delusional and I’m sorry you got so corrupted at such a young age to be as delusional as what you are now.

My dad now works two jobs and supports his wife and my siblings because he realizes that as the head of the family he has to get off his ass and work. To say Conservatives only support the survival of the richest is the biggest bunch of bullshit, liberal propaganda I have ever heard. I wish you would take your reality pills Hevusa because you’re making me sick.
Godbless, Tadpole.

Your Mom and step mom would have received free medical care and your Dad wouldn't have to struggle so much if you lived in a socialist country like Sweden.

People who are dirt poor and bring 8 kids into the world disgust me.

Good job painting yourself into a corner. With one post you have proven why your way of thinking is idiotic.
