Very right.
First the wrong:
“Illegal” is an adjective, not a noun. ~JGFitzgerald 6/25/09
Sorry , Joe, it is an adjective as well as a noun . I’ll quote you again. "Read a book ." Like a dictionary , perhaps.
Now the right part. Very insightful and I wish it had made more people stop to think rather than just jumping on Joe.
As for a humanizing term for a killer, it would depend on whom he killed, wouldn’t it? ~JGFitzgerald 6/26/09
Yes, it would. And who did the killing and where.
Wear camo and kill and be called a soldier.
Order the killings and be called a warmonger, unless you are a democrat and then be called a strong leader.
Kill a forming baby and be called a doctor.
Drown a woman in a car and be called a Senator.
Kill people in a coffee shop and be a martyr entering paradise.
