What I object to is making a murderer of anyone else. My objection could be eliminated, of course, by a simple addition to the capital punishment laws. Have the executions carried out by other people on death row who are already murderers. And, it is OK to accept money for participating in such an act because man-made law says it s all legal and the boss says it s part of your job. Brutality breeds brutality.
Death breeds death.
Life all life is sacred and as such, should not be taken by man, be he murderer or executioner. Bill Salter is publisher of the Odessa American. His columns appear Sundays. All rights reserved. Refer comments to Webmaster .
