You are really American... What if you were on his place?

It seems like Americans have some education issues related with empathy.

With this, I'm not against that man being punished, though I think people should be punished and recovered from what they did, and prison will only make him a worse person in society. But this is pure utopia.

You talk about money, what did tax dollars do with 11 september? Nothing, and still you spend a LOT of tax dollars with national security.

Baaaaaah! :oPPPPPP
