18 Months for Murder
Human life is worth less and less in the world we live in. We hear about murders and deaths almost to a point of comfortable numbness. More than 50 people die in a bizarre cult-like fashion, 22 die in a violent explosion by a terrorist bomb while they ride the bus to work and the list goes on and on.There are some deaths that we as a society have the ability to do something about and there are those which we are helpless to do anything about. When a murder is committed and the murderer pleads guilty, we have the obligation and duty as a society to put that person into jail for a long time.
