A death penalty debate that I didn't start... God bless the Lurker Lounge.
I dunno, I think responding as "an effing parent" is the human thing to do. Anybody responding as otherwise should probably have their head examined. Rationality only goes so far, as does logic. The raw emotions of the human spirit can not, and should not always be ignored or repressed. It is what makes us both great and terrible as human beings.
Perhaps, if this Yates character knew that it was legally wrong, and that she was going to DIE from it, she may have paused for just one moment for second thoughts. Maybe, maybe not, we will never know.
I say, let her hang and may the crows have her eyes.
She chose to run down her kids and butcher them, knowing full well that she shouldn't do it.

All alone, or in twos,
The ones who really love you
Walk up and down outside the wall.
Some hand in hand
And some gathered together in bands.
The bleeding hearts and artists
Make their stand.
And when they've given you their all
Some stagger and fall, after all it's not easy
Banging your heart against some mad buggers wall.
"Isn't this where...."
