>>>If someone commited a first degree murder on Adolf Hitler. Would you stil feel the same? How about a child killing in her father a first degree murder after she had been abused for a decade?

>>First, on the issue of a child killing a parent who had abused the child, in the U.S. it is extremely unlikely that the prosecution would go for first degree murder. There are precedents for such cases Your point isn't as valid as you think it is.

>>On Hitler, that is a pure straw man fallacy. Walter, I'm sorry, but a guy as smart as you are on SQL Server sure initiates a number of fallacies. You and Jos are the same in that regard...you're good guys and very smart, but you raise many fallacies. Just pointing that out. But to answer your question, if it occurred during the period where Hitler was ordered the torture and death of innocent people, again we're talking about a different situation.

>You missed the point entirely. There are numerous shades of gray while you insist to see things black and white. Seeing the shades of grey is exactly why judges and juries exist, else we could write a computer program for it.

...but as we know humans make mistakes....so knowing that it would seem logical not to impose a sentence that can not be corrected.

>I believe strongly the fallacie is on your side.
