Forty one years after three civil rights workers were murdered in Mississippi Edgar Ray Killen was found guilty and sentenced to three 20 prison terms. At the time he was tried but there was a hung jury. The government waited 38 years to retry him. There is no statute of limitations on the crime of murder and I agree with that. I was happy that he was finally found guilty. Forty one years was too long for it to happen but better late than never. Are you telling me it was too long ago to matter? That Killen shouldn't have been retried?

At the same time Ayers was setting off his bombs other people were bombing black churches in the south. What if one of the people who bombed a black church got off on a technicality and admitted he set the bombs multiple times, "Guilty as hell, free as a bird, America is a great country."  When asked if he regretted burning down black churches and killing people inside he said,  "I don't regret setting bombs, I feel we didn't do enough." If I kicked off my political career in the living room of this person who bombed black churches are you seriously telling me it would not matter to you?
