Thank you!!

Why don;t you show a picture of the two that murdered this innocent couple? Or would that not be politically correct.

First of all learn your bible it say "thou shall not commit murder" big difference. killing in self defense is not the same as cold blooded murder.And for the person who said the death penalty will not deter murder,It's not suppose to . Their not being executed to deter others , It's because they commeted a crime.Using that logic ,there shouldn't even be a prison system then, because that does not deter crimes either.

I am a 15 year old girl who watches reruns of Hee Haw, and stringbean was a pretty funny fellow. I remember my mom telling me about this a while back, and it's really sad, but I am glad to know that stringbean is in heaven, where he won't feel pain anymore. :)

I knew stringbeans from TV. What great memories I have of him, may he be playing with angels and his loving wife forever...........

I happen to be in love with the death penalty other than it takes too long to get it done.By the time justice day comes usually the bastard has outlived the victims family.
Just to show I am a caring person though I offer this as a compromise...
Go to jail for life.No contact ever again with the outside....just as if you are EXECUTED.
No TV,no books,no exercise,no letters from home, no NOTHING except a 5 ft piece of rope to play with.
The only ornament should be a U hook in the cieling capable of holding up a flower pot or a 300 lbs inmate.
Just a thought

my family suffered through the murder of an 86 year old family member. He was brutally murdered, disfigured and hidden in his own home while the perpetrator made himself at home, used his car and ate his food for three days afterward. We fought for the death penalty as a family but were unsuccessful. During sentencing the young man--23 at the time--looked at us and smiled in victory. Yes, I am for the death penalty and will be until my own death. I see very few redeeming qualities in people that put themselves in the position to be in prison to begin with. I prisons were more violent and built for punishment instead of luxury crime may infact decrease. I, for one, am tired of footing the bill for full health care, recreation and three meals a day for people who do not have the mental fortitude to survive in everyday society.

It's amazing how people pick only the parts of the Bible they choose to believe. Yes, Moses wrote the law as was given to him by God and 'thou shall not kill' was a commandment of God. However, God also anointed his chosen ones to kill by the hundreds of thousands...for instance, Samson said, "With the jawbone of an ass, heaps upon heaps, with the jaw of an ass have I slain a thousand men." God provided young King David with the strength to kill a giant with a slingshot and a rock. God provided the means and strength to kill enemies of his chosen ones. Does 'an eye for an eye' ring a bell to anyone? In Hebrews, it was written that justice was when a criminal received comparable punishment for the crime. If a man takes a life, then his life is taken in return. Don't just pick out the parts referring to God as a kind and loving God...he is, indeed...but he is also a vengeful God and does not expect the world to be overun by the likes of child rapists and murderers...or people who kill innocent people in the course of attempting to steal what they have worked hard to attain. If executions were conducted swiftly, it would indeed deter crime...as it is, they sit in prison for years and even those on death row are not executed expediently, but instead force the taxpayers to continue supporting their appeal efforts...not to mention feeding and clothing them. Personally, I object to supporting the leisurely lifestyle of murderers. If the forensic science that is available today proves that a person committed a crime such as rape or murder, they should be killed instantly, with no chance for the appeal process. You would see how fast the crime rate would drop.

If you agree that it's not murder unless you kill the innocent, then why wait for the legal system and just advocate vigilante justice or form lynch mobs? But then how do you know with 100% certainty that someone is guilty and would not the legal system then be guilty of murder in the event they executed an innocent person? It's not as if this hasn't happened before.

While I agree with others about the strange timing of this article; someone just brought up the subject of rightousness. I have never believed any good work or gift being "as filthy rags to God". I could never understand the concept of God making us in his image and hold us in such contempt.
In my opinion, God doesn't make anything filthy. Why would the good works of something made in His image be filthy. Please, stop telling God what to do, what is pleasing to Him, and who to bless or condemn.
Again, in my opinion, He's got it under control.
