*clears throat and plugs in teacher's voice*
Look here, Sunshine. I think this thread is only a small margin better than your last one, which frankly is utterly despicable.
I think that your user-name is making it hard for anyone to believe that you are sincere and therefore you may be getting more agro than you bargained for.
And whether I had a prayer or not for Van Nyugen and his mother and family, I would NOT be offering it here on an internet forum to be read as entertainment by other people. We are talking about faith and life/death and a family ripped to bits by drugs and a mother who is NEVER going to hold her baby again. I simply cannot begin to imagine what this must feel like and so I just cannot comment. This happens every day all over the world, and the media has just decided that this story will sell papers. Human being are not commodities to be sold and traded for money and a moment in the sun.
While I understand that as human beings with frontal lobes, discussion is powerful and desirable, *but* arguing over whether someone has the right to live or die, voting on whether a person should be hung and *then* asking others to join in prayer with you Singabloodypore (a user name that is just sooo obviously political), is blasphemous and outrageous. Now, cut it out.

Perhaps it is not Van Nguyen that needs the prayers. I remember a story about some other bloke that was executed he offered a prayer to his executioners "Forgive them Lord for they know not what they are doing"
ring any bells?

Having quite a good day, actually. Ergo, you're not a genius.

Yes it's him. He doesn't like to get angry. He especially doesn't like to be called a "poodle".

You silly twit. Asking for prayers and then calling the mother of christ a troll! All in the same post. You are a real piece of work you know!
