What is with the current Republican party and capital punishment? Is it part of the "culture of life"? Doesn't sound too much as though it is based on the Sermon on the Mount.

Could this be what evangelicals really mean when they talk about 'laying on of hands'?

I dated (briefly) the female equivalent of Steve. At least I hope she wasn’t Steve.

Meanwhile, the hostess was talking about giving people "the chair" (near the kitchen). And, in the next booth, someone was talking about beheading (a chicken who then ran around). Meanwhile, another customer was talking about the waitress's great rack.

The Waffle House is a regular criminal justice think tank.

And they don't fuck around with so-called scentific "DNA" that just lets the guilty go scot-free. "CSI: Miami"? Just execute someone, that's all the evidence we need.

Yep, DeFuniak Springs is out here in the Pee-handle. The senator who came up with the brilliant idea to forbid medical professionals from inquiring about guns in the household (on penalty of five million dollar fine) was from out here, too.

Pensacola is the only place I ever saw an actual "Colored Entrance" sign, about 45 years ago. And I lived in Montgomery at the time.

Nothing good ever came from a Waffle House and that includes breakfast or legislation.

What about the good old standby: hanging? Or beheading (would have to hire a European-style headsman, so maybe too elitist?) I'm sure a careful reading of medieval texts would yield a treasure trove of great ways to kill people.

Compassionate conservatives do not approve of drawing and quartering criminals. They would exercise some leniency, and have them drawn and thirded.
