In his column last week the ever popular high school teacher, cum writer, who is revered by weekly newspaper readers everywhere as the world's greatest _ authority on everything dedicated his space to an argument that democratic process has no right to interfere with the greater right of criminals to get away with murder. Mr. Smiley does not like capital punishment. He acknowledges the fact that most Canadians disagree with him, but does not see that as any reason for M.P.s to support the wishes of their constituents on a '"'matter of principle." Have-We Gof He thinks that the role of a member of parliament should be redefined so they could be free to act as totalitarian dictators instead of having to accept the servile role of representatives. He complains that democracy is causing politicians to have, 'their arms twisted by their constituents." You bet we have!

Well I am sorry sir, but murderers do not impress me. No thinking person wants revenge against a person who kills because he is mentally unbalanced, whether the imbalance is caused by booze, drugs, or just plain stupidity. Neither do we want sane people to know that they can go about deliberately killing innocent citizens in cold blood with no fear of reprisal. People who knowingly take a life must know that the full resource of our law enforcement system will search unceasingly until the killer is caught and that, once caught, he will die. The death penalty is a deterrent. Robbers used to carry unloaded guns. They wanted to scare victims into handing over the money, but there is no way they wanted to take a chance that someone might be killed. They did not mind a few years in jail, but they were not anxious to hang. prices start as low as GLIDDEN No. 444 White Interior LATEX PAINT tremendous value at only something a little different CORK PANELLING Reg.*2.10 pkg. covers a 9 Sq. ft. 17% pkg. 12" X 12" ; ) Windshield | $495 | 5 Washer it p LVENT |g 3S = LAKE SCUGOG LUMBER ONE c GALLON 70 235 WATER ST. = 985-7391 = PORT PERRY Now they take loaded guns. Why not? You get a bigger sentence for bank robbery than you do for murder. Dead victims can not identify you in court. Last year a group of prisoners at Kingston Penetentiary got bored with prison life. Just for excitement they got a few fellow prisoners who they did not like, tied them up, threw blankets over their heads, and slowly tortured them to death. Why not? All they got were three more years added onto already long sentences. Four months ago a defenceless little girl in British Columbia was brutally murdered by a man who had { been convicted previously, but was allowed to walk the streets on 'humanitarian' grounds. No humanitarians turned up at the childs funeral. Or at least no one who could be considered humanitarian by the people who believe criminals should be able to get away with murder. In most cases the people who blubber and bawl at the mention of capital punishment are the same ones who crv for abortion on demand. They think it is okay to murder babies, but wrong to punish criminals. That alone , says volumes about their thinking ability. Perhaps the whole issue could be resolved by calling the deterent against murder retroactive abortion instead of capital punishment.
