33. People change
Maybe she has. Honestly, do you think it's a racket to get out of prison? When all you can do is think about what you've done it moves some folks to try and make it better, in whatever way they can.

What if she COULD make things better if she was free? What if she could take those years and make them WORTHWHILE?

I'm not saying she should be. I'm asking the question - are all of you unwilling to entertain the possibility that people change?

Don't believe it? - come up north sometime. You can meet a few friends of mine. The guy that will tell you bad puns until you beg him to stop, the other guy who'll spend 25 hours a day taking kids to baseball practice, the guy who can build you a house that you'll fall in love with - all very EVIL people at one time.

Think about it.

Try and use some of that compassion you believe you have.

P.S. Thank you ronny for a reasoned response. I don't agree of course, but I appreciate your taking the time to articulate your thoughts.

That is a rarity of here these days.

Peace.
