They used to wash off the blood, tie'em on a board and stand 'em in front of the hardware store for a couple of days. Making sure the public got to see what they looked like in the end was also a message to anybody who wanted to follow in their paths. But that was before political correctness set in. ...........................It says here www.newswithviews.com/Schwiesow/jim181.htm

Law abiding people have this tendency to think that things that would make them not do crimes will make non-law abiding people not do crimes. The problem with that is the non-law abiding people think differently than law abiding people.
With those involved in terrorism, we are talking about two groups of people. One group are people stupid enough to blow themselves up so attempting to put into them the fear that if they don't change their ways they will end up dead doesn't make much sense. The other group are the people directing those idiots who are stupid enough to blow themselves up. This group is obviously smart enough to not blow themselves up and thus are likely smart enough to already know if they get found, they will end up dead.

This is one of the rare occasions I agree with Bill. These people are insane, and nothing is going to stop them from their mission. On the other hand I don't think stuffing Bin Laden and putting him on display would have further inflamed them, either. They are what they are, and all we can do is oblige them and keep killing them. I don't see this war ever ending.

Muslim Brotherhood candidate in Egypt is gaining ground, like some of us said months ago would happen. They'll be running the whole area before long, I imagine.

What, Lak?? Do you have some idea that if we pull out of the region they are going to leave us alone? I STRONGLY disagree. Seems the Dem POTUS is not in a hurry to leave, either.

That was long before PC came into vogue.

It's far too late to pull out and be left alone. Too much damage has been done in the Muslim world. We'll never live to see the end of it.
