| Message | If we make the death penalty illegal than where is justice. A mass murderer not getting what his actions deserve is not justice. I believe in the restricted use of the death penalty, I think we should give people a chance to change. However, how is letting a mass murderer live, and off taxpayers' money, justified.

| Message | Mr Verdun, I think you could use a book or two about Penal Law. That's not what justice stands for. |
