So I turn on the radio in the middle of a story about a guy released from prison after 44 years. It's all about how he's learning to use a cell phone and wants to ride a roller-coaster. I'm thinking this is inspirational stuff about wrongfully convicted man restarting his life. But no, it soon becomes apparent that the man actually did rob a bank, kidnap three staff members, shoot them on the side of the road and leave them for dead. The girl whose throat he slit died.
Now, I'm not going to comment on whether or not he'd "served his time". Alas, 44 years is longer that most murderers serve. But why on earth is this guy getting the head-shaking, it's all so sad treatment, usually reserved for, you know, tragic stuff. Tragic, like the death of the girl he murdered.
Update: Hey, it's not just me. Jonah is posting about this at the Corner.

This sounds like a classic case of how liberals feel toward dissidents. They always victimize the innocent, and honor the violator.
Take for example, remember the woman in Texas that drown her 5 kids in the bath tub? You remember how all the feminist like Katie Couric advocated her?
For some odd reason, libs always want to us to try to " understand where these people are coming from". It's in their core belief that everyone has a sense of reason and its not realistic.
This story was an example of how liberals taint society. They attempt to fog our vision, to where we e a serious identity crisis in deciphering the difference between the victim and the violator.
By the way... It's also a communist/socialist characteristic.
