GOOD RIDDANCE FACTOR
RE GUNS, gangs and drugs: When murder statistics are given, no one seems to
include the "good riddance factor." With due respect to the innocent family
members left behind, does anyone really give a damn if one drug dealer
kills another drug dealer? As far as I'm concerned, it seems like a two for
one deal: one violent criminal is gone and another put away in jail, at
least for a little while. I think they should keep separate statistics for
those innocents who are killed and those who "got theirs."
