twitterLetter: Save sympathy for the victims
Wednesday, Nov. 6, 2002 | 9:12 a.m.
Mike O'Callaghan's Oct. 29 column, "Have Trials In Virginia," was right on the money.
I believe that after those two sniper murders are given a fair trial and found guilty, they should be stood in front of a firing squad to feel what it's like to have a bullet penetrate a person's body and end that person's life.
I spent most of my life back East in liberal land. The media back there were always in sympathy with murderers and had very little sympathy for the victims. It was always the fault of the rifles, pistols, knives or whatever. The killer was portrayed as a poor victim of society.
Believe me, bleeding-heart liberals couldn't care less about the victims of these snipers or the victims' families. If I were to put a color to bleeding-heart liberals, the color would be yellow.
