Homolka, Schomolka...Enough Already

Latest and greatest out of the courts is that Karla is free and clear on her restrictions on her release in July. Well, of course the press or the families can't let go of that, and insist that she is a troublemaker, and will continue to be one.

Here's the deal people...let it go! The prosecution had their chance 12 years ago to lock her away indefinitely, and take away all the rights that they should take from her. Now that there has been a fuck up 12 years ago, everyone is coming down on Karla. Guess what? She upheld her side of the bargain, and the government is now balking on theirs. She did her time, and has paid her debt to society, as deemed by the courts. The families and everyone else should direct their anger and frustration at the government, to make sure it doesn't happen again!

Everyone that is against Karla, look to the government that screwed up the deal in the first place. The fault doesn't lay with Karla, but with the system. For once, I would like to see the government do something as a deterrent, instead of making these kind of deals in the first place. If I was in Karla's shoes, I would go after the government and sue for harassment. Maybe that would teach them a lesson.

I am not a Karla fan, but a deal is a deal...move on and make changes to the CCC to ensure that the rights of victims are protected to the utmost degree in the future. This includes tougher gun laws, and mandatory jail time. Deals that are made, should be conditional pending new evidence. This would have resolved the Karla issue years ago.

Only the voters can make the changes by ensuring that the candidates support tougher measures for the future. The chance to do that will be on Jan 23 2006.
