It is wholly right that the American legal system should have a death penalty (as indeed should the gutless UK!) for crimes as heinous as those committed by this man. If ever anyone should have forfeited his right to life - it was he. Genesis 9:6 - and NO - Jesus did not take away this social duty from the authorities.
It is not the duty of the state to run away from its bounden duties to produce the justice required in such a terrible situation. Individuals must forgive: that, however, is not a requirement of the state. Read ALL of your Bible carefully - and check out the New Testament too!
BUT - was the Coble of 2019 the same Coble who perpetrated these dreadful deeds back in 1989?
Justice delayed is justice denied. Has there ever been a better example?
The delays from conviction to execution in the American system are intolerable. Just how many appeals against sentence should there be? - One, of course. Two, perhaps. That is it - and there should be time restraints on the non-stop appeals which are permitted and misused by the defence to try to prevent the lawful and moral removal of the most evil people from our planet.
Might I even suggest that 12 months is too long a period to wait.
The death penalty is brought into disrepute which should never happen. The moral high ground has been frittered away.
What sickens me to the stomach even more is that those self-same liberal hypocrites who shout the loudest in the face of true justice are frequently the very people who demand that babies be butchered inside the womb - and the worst amongst these even insist that this should be extended to fully grown, viable children right up to the point of birth.
