I hope his nasty-ass heart can grow a few sizes and he can show basic human compassion for a suffering family. I also hope that when he faces a situation like this, others give him more compassion than he deserves.

As a professional, he can think it, he can believe it, but he better not say it. Of course he has the right to say it, but he also must be ready to face the consequences for making a statement like that. it's uncalled for.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7566778230970156239.post-67647573083955370312012-08-17T11:45:44.564-05:002012-08-17T11:45:44.564-05:00I wonder if this JP might have 'mental issues&...I wonder if this JP might have 'mental issues'.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7566778230970156239.post-77051857757651838062012-08-17T11:30:51.303-05:002012-08-17T11:30:51.303-05:00The position McCleary holds makes him accountable ...The position McCleary holds makes him accountable for his words.

Maybe that's the reason that the commission on judicial conduct spends so much time disciplining JPs for doing stupid things they lack the authority to do.<br />Too many of them think they're God when they become JPs.

There is absolutely no indication that anything ever happened to the dog.<br /><br />You insinuate something based on a stereotypical misconception. Yes, there are some spree killers and/or serial killers who have been documented in the past to have tortured animals. But just as there are different forms of physical illness, there are different forms of mental illness.<br /><br />The tragedy in College Station doesn't need any additional fanning of the flames to make it sad. It also doesn't need uneducated assumptions widening the depth of your lack of understanding of mental health issues.Murray Newmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00662196272138109874noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7566778230970156239.post-41492669376188254602012-08-16T02:25:57.996-05:002012-08-16T02:25:57.996-05:00Honey-Badger don't care.
