UGH! I can't get over this, PLEASE send him down here, extradite him to Texas... we'll make him a temporary citizen so we can deal with him in a way only texas knows how! this man needs to die!

The squeamish "people eat dead hookers" bit is good for "news" in a tabloid sense, but this is a local story for me since I live in Vancouver, and if you had followed the story the BIG question for ages has been, not who ate who, but how come the police let this guy kill so many people.

For years we've had prostitutes disappearing and activist groups trying to get something done about it, and informants coming forward and saying something was up at the pig farm and the parts never got put together.

As to sending him to Texas ...

He kills, we don't. That's a difference between him and us.

Not much to learn when you're dead.

problem solved! Square with the house :-D

Or we could just let him go to kill some more hookers. There are people who would be morally OK with that too.


The advasntage of ONLY locking people up, and making it a rule, is that if you lock up someone who is innocent you can let them out. All the innocent people who have been killed in Texas get to stay dead. And because it is so permanent, and irreversable, the system has a high motivation for never admitting mistakes so that people can have confidence that innocents are not executed. Unfortunately this is an official fiction and not the truth.

The question becomes, "what propotion of innocent people are you willing to have executed to maintain the system"? If the question includes the caveat, "one of them being you", the number is probably quite low, around zero.
