What kind of punishment for an act of terror would you choose?

This a question I was asking people today. Well that and do you think it was a home grown or foreign act?
Most everyone said home grown. Which I think it is. 
I asked what kind of punishment should be handed out for this kind of crime? Some said hanging, firing squad. Those kind of replies. But others said a quick death is to good for them. Which I agree. Shocking right? 
I was looking up different kind of punishments. Here are a few that caught my eye.
These are just the ones that might work for someone, but not for me.
My idea is to put them on the most remote island that is very dangerous to get on or off. They will have nothing but the clothes on their back. On the island would be a wide range of deadly snakes and insects plus maybe man eating animals and deadly plants. Mother nature will teach them a lesson that will be their last one they will ever learn. It could be the cheapest way to deal with those kind of people. 
I'm betting that most would not last no more then a week. Some a month, if they get lucky. 
I know I sound cruel but maybe that's the kind of consequence that people need to be hanging over their head to make them think. Remember their act was far more unjust then anything that could be done to them.

Well that's my ponder for now.
Till next time.
Keep on pondering the pondering possibilities.

Jean Viken Cold Case

When I first started this blog one of the first things I wrote about was the murder of a local woman. She disappeared Jan 29th 2008 on one of the coldest days of that month. Her body was found I think in May of that year. She had been shot. Her van was found not long after she went missing up north. She was the mother of 4 young children and was going through a divorce at the time. Well here it is 2 years later and nothing has happened to try and find the person or persons responsible for her death. Why? I'm sure the whoever was responsible was really not that smart. It's as if the no one wants to get to the bottom of what really happened to her. Maybe she was not important enough. Maybe she was not connected to the right people.  I wonder what it would take to get more exposure to this cold case. If there was more pressure from some place else maybe the ones responsible would start to panic and make mistakes to expose the truth. It's time the truth was exposed. Remembe

Jean Viken update and other local things.

This past week Channel 7 has been doing stories on the cold case of Jean Viken.I did see one of them. In it the police said they know who did it but they are waiting for someone to come forward. But no matter what four young children will be without their mother for the rest of their lives because someone decided to end her life out of the meanness of their heart. Here is the story I found on the internet: Jean Viken's friends and family remember her as a loving mother of four young kids, a devoted daughter and sister. But nearly four years after her murder, a dark cloud hangs over Jean's memory, as they continue to search for answers. "We were having a birthday party for her because all of her friends would have wanted to get together like we would have done if she was here," Jane Hempel said. Almost five months after Jane Hempel reported her sister Jean Viken missing, family and friends gathered to celebrate her birthday, hoping to feel some semblance o

Pondering Japan's Earthquake

The earthquake in Japan is just another wake up call for us. It is so far the largest disaster we are dealing with right now. And with all those nuclear power plants having problems there, it will get a whole lot worse.  The earth is talking to us. Telling us the big change is upon us. Instead of fighting wars in other countries we should be preparing our people for this big change that will change our home, planet Earth, in a way that will make life allot more difficult to survive.  Japan had prepared for this kind of event to a point, but this kind of event to this degree is never fool proof.  My heart does go out to all those who are living through this right now.  I will give one prediction for the near future that some might say makes me sound like a crack pot but it is always a possibility.  Here it is: With all the things happening right now natural disasters and political unrest big changes are inevitable. Governments will fall apart, America included. People will have to rel
