See, that wasn't so hard was it? But what she said about one
life worth more than another is not an ideal, it was a lie.
Punishing people is fine, no problem there. When the 
government doesn't kill a convicted murderer they are 
showing that they value ALL life, not just certain ones. 
That's a far better ideal.
