1.3 Billion Can't be Wrong
“The beginning of wisdom is to call things by their right names”
“A wise man makes his own decisions, an ignorant man follows public opinion”
“If you are planning for a year, sow rice; if you are planning for a decade, plant trees; if you are planning for a lifetime, educate people”
“He who seeks vengeance must dig two graves: one for his enemy and one for himself”
“To listen well, is as powerful a means of influence as to talk well, and is as essential to all true conversation”
Chinese Proverbs

Death of the Death Penalty.. Well at least for children
Link is a .PDF
I find it odd that people still think that we should still kill those who we think have killed someone else. The problem I have with this is, every so often we all see people that have been wrongfully accused of murder. I don't think that we will always be right on who we convict of these crimes. I guess it is a start that the Supreme Courts in the states has ruled against juvenile death penalty. In the last fifteen years the U.S. has executed more young offenders then the rest of the world combined. Also with this ruling there are seventy children that will be let off of death row. Well now as they have started to save the lives of anyone 17 and under from the death penalty. That is a start, now all I can hope is that I keeps going. Don't kill any one, Just because you think or believe, doesn't mean that it is true, and how can you say sorry or make amends to someone dead. I'm sure that we could find another way to rehabilitate or just have them contribute to the world we are all in We need to stop killing people and try helping them or at least, allow people to live and make them pay for their crimes with time, so if it was the wrong person you can try to make it up to the person, not just tell their family that they died because some one was wrong....
