Who’s life is more important then another’s life?  You might ask who are we to judge but we do judge here are a few thoughts on this subject (below).

(1) You receive the death penalty for killing a police officer and life behind bars for “the common man/woman”.

(2) If a celebrity dies there death is plastered on the front page while a “ordinary person” is lucky if they a few lines on a obituary column dedicated to them.

(3) Protests will occur to prevent our soldiers from dying in a foreign land but how about those their lives have saved (Victims of ISIS, Vietnamese Children, Iraqi’s longing for freedom)

(4) Society will spend millions to make sure that they have execute the right person for a capital crime but will fight to make sure the can easily kill the unborn.

(5) Life is cheap for those that are killed in the inner city by a person wearing a hoody but worthy of protest and riot’s if killed by someone wearing blue.

(6) If your death is caused by someone who hated you for your race, religion, sexual orientation they receive an additional charge against them then those that killed you just because they hated you in general.

No matter how we might judge someone’s life and times the final judgement is not in our hands.
