In my original statement I referred to gene therapy as an alternative to the death penalty. I didnt expect it tobe used in every day cases for jaywalking or roadrage. I just thought it might be a good thing to try where instead of executing someone we alter them to be less violent. I am also far from a pacifist. There are certain situations where violence is highly justified. However there are lots of situations it is not.


I wouldn't recommend sex, drugs and insanity for everyone, but its always worked for me.
