Don't mean to monopolize...but one area where I sense quite a change in my views is capital punishment. When I was 20 and singing Phil Ochs' "Iron Lady", I would have been VERY anti- C.P. but now (I guess from reading about so many plea-bargained and loop-holed trial verdicts) I'm pretty ambivalent about violent criminals being "done in" by the State. Guess I've lost the desire to believe that ALL life is sacred. Just too many horror stories....and I guess that gives me a pretty "conservative" slant in that area.
