Andy is in this situation because the legal justice system has failed. He has been before the judge numerous times and he only gets a slap on the wrist.The judge should be jailed in contempt of court if he/she lets him off easy. He needs help, but justice must be served first. If penalties were severe enough,these problems wouldn’t exist as much. I love Andy, but he first needs to be broken down and humbled so the Holy Spirit can deal with him. He is full of demons. Some thru his upbringing and some by his own choosing. He knows right from wrong. No drug can erase your knowledge of right and wrong. It’s a choice you make when you lust for the things of this world and they can only pacify you. God will satisfy you! He who comes to The Father will hunger nor thirst no more. It’s time the court system backed up our officers hard work, instead of making them look like clowns in front of these criminals. It must be embarrassing to officers to see the same criminals back on the street. Stand up citizens and hold our elected officials to the same standard

@Dora if you work for a living feel free to give the drug addicts your hard earned money and belongings because you feel sorry for them. I however prefer to keep my hard earned money and things I’ve worked hard to get to myself. Just call me selfish..

REGARDING:
” He may have been trying to Feed his family, his wife could be ill, his child without clothes. Who knows what? Who said anything about him and Drugs? ”

He is reported to be the one who said it. Of course, he may have lied because a thief will lie, but why would a thief lie to say he had been smoking crack all day when the truth was that he had a naked, sick child to tend? You’d think he would mention that instead.

I may be too trusting, but I’m going to believe him when he said he stole to support his drug usage.

It’s astonishing to me, and maybe I’m a bit too liberal but isn’t this considered a sin none the less? And until this man asks for forgiveness he’s just as damned as anyone else? Yes, prayer is highly advised for the lost but it also will be up to this man. I’m 20. I used to believe in people. I’ve kind of started to realize that life is a lot less dark if you don’t put your faith in others. I’m starting to “mature” in the sense that I think this man has done the crime and he should pay the time. I got my butt spanked when I did wrong as a child, but I was an adolescent…so what does that say for this man? Mental competence does say a lot for some, but if he’s able to drive a car he’s able to understand stealing is wrong. So frown on him. Basically, no one should be trying to “save his soul” just because this action was held in the church. It should be because he needs the extra help. This man should be held accountable for what he did regardless. I work hard for what I have and if someone else should think they could take it from me, I’d be livid. No one has more chances than the other. Most just decide to do the best they can. Clearly this isn’t a form of the best.

I am very sorry for the victim. I know this must have been an aweful experience. However, times have gotten so hard out there, that people are losing everything, and give up on their families to make things easier on themselves. He may have been trying to Feed his family, his wife could be ill, his child without clothes. Who knows what? Who said anything about him and Drugs? His sins can be forgiving!

I am the daughter of the women that had her purse snatched out from her side at church Sunday night. It has taken a real emotional toll on her. She feels really vandalized and taken advantage of. Thankfully my dad went after him and wrestled with him so we got a description of him. We got most of her things returned. But finding it on the side of the road pictures scattered everywhere was really dishearting. I do hope he gets help and does not hurt anyone else.

In addition to picking butter beans (and peas), put a sack on his back and tool in his hand to pick and chop cotton. That’ll take some of that meanness out of him.

REGARDING:
“before we send someone to hell let’s remember Jesus died on a cross for our sins.”

We are not able to send anyone there or to stop them from going. If they insist on rejecting Christ, they have to stumble over his body to go there.

And our debt will climb higher while we try to “rehab” this piece of junk. The price of a bullet spent will save us all money. Our prisons are over-crowded and our bank rolls are very thin. He will get out and do it again, no matter how much you all pray or believe that your god will change him. Its not going to happen. Look at the sheer number of repeat offenders that got caught. No doubt in my mind that there are as many if not more that haven’t been caught. This man and everyone like him is a menace and burden to society. I agree that hard labor would potentially benefit him. But don’t let him watch tv or get cushy food while there. Make him hate it so bad he’ll never want to return.
