Get the best of both worlds and forgive him personally, then still demand that justice be served and lock him back up.

Yes, exactly right. Forgiveness is not to be confused with Justice carried out by proper governmental system. There are consequences to wrongful behavior. Post #13 has an excellent point.

Given that the these lunatics use political assassination as a means to gain political power, I'm of the opinion that "forgiveness" is the last thing we need.
The only thing these animals understand is punishment and death. Anything else is viewed as weakness, decadence, an encouragement to perform even greater acts of violence.

YEAH....what YOU said....we can "forgive" someone, but that does NOT mean we have to FORGET their sins, and expect them to be paid.....
