A crying damn shame. I can only hope they each came to realize the horror of what they did and were ashamed of themselves before they died.

And "Yes,I AM including the jurors."
I agree, and The Almighty will deal with them as He sees fit.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Can we leave the you-know-who potshots out of the obituary thread, please? That election was over weeks ago, and quite frankly, I'm tired of fighting that fight. Thanks.

Then don't.  I'm not tired of fighting for principles, for righteousness, for conservatism, or for decent behavior and equality (you know, the kind the Founding Fathers built into the system?)

If you think what I was referring to was only Moore, you are sadly mistaken.   There are a whole group of people talking about the "good old days," and this woman's suffering and shame was a significant part of those days.

It's important to remember that, jmyrle.   Don't shut truth out.

Could we please stay on topic? It's probably a good thing that a new Obituaries page starts tomorrow.

What I posted was on topic.......... about the death of a woman who was gang raped and her rapists set free by a white male jury.

Those weren't the "good old days."   That is a relevant comment to make on an obituary thread.

That wasn't a miscarriage of justice, it was an abortion, whether racism was relevant to the outcome or not (which might have been the same if she was just "poor white trash", too). Either way, there is a final Judge, and they cannot escape His jurisdiction.
