But the truth is, these are just the tip of the iceburg. What if we could sit down and see a news report every evening of ALL the crime committed in every community in the nation for that day?
How would we view our condition compared to Sodom then?

You have a good point there.

Re: I am a bigot.
Just some quick glances at statistics shows that news report would take awhile.
These are just U.S. stats.
Murder - 45 / day average
Rape - 243 / day average (thats just those that are reported)
Thats just two of the violent crime catagories.
Could you imagine sitting down to that news report everyday?

A Texas inmate won an election somewhere. Or got a certain percentage of votes. I don't remember which it was.
I am still going to vote for PO's dead dog, Roscoe.
