Right In Florida

Motto: This is what happens when Insanity and Banality come together.

Name:
Location: North Central Florida, United States

I'm an aging boomer, white male (cue scary music); not religious, mostly conservative. Married to the same woman forever. No kids-by choice (I believe in personal choice in most areas of life). Voted mostly Republican until November 2000 when the national Democrats tried to steal the election in Florida. I promised to never again vote for another Democrat; kept that promise to date.

Murder in The Villages-Justice (or something like that)

This Ocala Star-Banner headlines tell you all you need to know:

Family pleads for mercy for killer
Convicted killer to be sentenced in Villages slaying

So you know you're going to get the following:

OCALA - A decent student who loved sports and occasionally wrote poetry. A sensitive, if misguided, boy who suffered abuse as a young child and ran afoul of the law at age 9.

Ultimately, Renaldo McGirth was simply a young man who "made bad choices," in the words of one witness who came to testify at the 19-year-old's presentence hearing in The Villages murder case.

"There really wasn't much structure in his life," said Harry Krot, a licensed psychologist who concluded in an exam that McGirth suffered from anti-social personality disorder.

Diana Miller, 63, was killed from a gunshot wound to the head in July 2006 following an attempted robbery at her home. Miller's 70-year-old husband, James, also was shot in the head but survived. McGirth was found guilty on three charges, but acquitted on a count of armed kidnapping in the alleged abduction of the Millers' daughter.

The last paragraph is all you need to know.

Poor little angelic murderer? Just some hard breaks?

No!

Sentence him to death and let's move on.

Save the tears for those that matter; like Diana and James Miller.
