Yes Jan G, I see your point, but its a matter of confusion to start with. When I said I switched up on my opinion on my killing people, I did not mean the state doing it in my name as in capital punishment, I mean me personally killing people. I gave that up for lent ! Not that I ever killed anyone, but my mind was made up that I would kill someone if it had to be. That decision was based on my fear. Once I got into the swing of things I realized that almost all murdering situations could be handled in a better and different way, so I decided to not kill. However, I can see a situation where I would kill. Should Kade ever be molested severely where there was a lot of damage done, or worse yet, killed, and the perp got away with it in court, then I would try my best to murder him and just have to live with the consequences. When it comes to capital punishment, I believe in it. As Sharon stated, we been there and done that on the subject, so that's about all I care to say on the subject. Jack Childers in OKC
