Unbelievable is right, Spaw, but at least he did it when they were away and NOT with an eye for killing the children so that "no one else should have them" as has been done in other cases. Still, that is terrible.

If one reads the original post of Mark's about restorative justice, I believe he was careful to say it might only work in certain segments of society. It works in some of the Native communities because it is their tradition; possibly one we could learn from.

And, I am not saying I agree or condone drug abuse, but there are people who argue making drugs legal would cut down on a lot of the crime. Who knows? Whatever, it certainly spawns terrible acts, as it is now.
