..I agree with you for the reasons you've said Dezzy but also because ..imagining how I would feel if that happened to a member of my family/the impact/sadness/pain of it..?...why would I even consider inflicting the same on the family of the attacker/killer because they are complete innocents..why would I put another parent through that...how could that ever be justified or have any 'satisfaction or justice' whatsoever....it would only double the pain...
