nicely said ipat...
compassion is the mark of an enlightened society. (i know many will
say, 'but the two meanies showed no compassion!') doesnt mean we throw
it out the window.

had a chat with my mates wife about this kinda thing a while back...
she said she'd kill anyone who damaged her children... but then, what
of those close to who she'd kill? the cycle goes on...
we need to shape our communities so this doesnt happen, not easy, but
thats how i see it..

makes me ponder the story of cain and able too...
