PALATKA, Fla. (AP) - A Florida sheriff says two men who escaped
from jail there will be charged with murdering a 66-year-old woman
hours after the breakout this week.
Deputies captured Doni Ray Brown and Timothy Wayne Fletcher
Saturday in Pomona Park in the northern part of the state. The
Putnam County Sheriff's office says two deputies tackled the men
during a foot chase after receiving a tip that they were in the
area.
Putnam County Sheriff Jeff Hardy told reporters at a news
conference that the two men will be charged with murder in the
death of Helen Googe, who was found dead after their escape early
Wednesday. The men also face an escape charge.

I’ll tell you what kind of world we live in.  A world where kids aren’t parented and allowed to run amuck in society, a world where video games and TV are parents, a world where everyone is treated equally, win or lose you get a trophy, you never get failing grades, everybody “deserves” a piece of the pie no matter how good or bad they are because they are special just like you and me, a world where rap artists are idolized for songs about rape, murder, drugs, and criminal lifestyles, a world where our government wants to remove our right to protect our families from criminals but opposes enforcing laws we already have on the books, a world where our youth can learn more about “true” history and religion in prison than in school, because we don’t want to offend certain groups, a world where our government has failed our teachers, police officers, firefighters, and military by not ensuring they have adequate resources, pay, and authority to do their jobs.  A world that is much different than the one I grew up in and a world that makes me worry every day as to which is going to get taken from me first, my life or my rights.

What kind of world do we live in?  This makes no sense to do something like this.

Hang them high so that all can see the consequences of their actions.

Hang ‘em.
