In Others' Words

Occasionally, I stumble upon or overhear interesting quotes that make me pause...

"I've always been fascinated by American points of view toward violence. The death penalty in the U.S. is a kind of legalized revenge, isn't it? You've even kind of admitted to that fact, too, the way that families of the victim can attend the execution."
-- Film Director Neil Jordan ("The Crying Game", "The Brave One"), an Irishman.

hmmm... it is; and until I have to deal with that situation myself, I don't know how i feel about it. Easy enough to say I'm against it until someone I love is killed... then how will I feel?
