Ashamed to admit it.....

But as liberal as I am in most areas, I am very conservative with my views on crime. I hate to admit that I do agree on some issues with those on the Fox Network et. al. I am old school..... an eye for an eye, if a man rapes (and I not speaking about 'she say he rape her', I am speaking about rape when there is physical evidence, dna etc) cut his penis off, kind of guy. I rarely believe in prisoner reform and 'rehabilitation'. Their victims usually do not get that second chance.......
Case in point, Jah Cure.
Jah Cure is a dancehall singer who was tried and convicted of rape here in Jamaica under, quite frankly, conditions that if I was arranging his sentencing he would never again see the light of day outside a prison walls. During this 'incarceration', he has been allowed to record and release songs etc. Anyway he was recently released and I will continue to boycott his songs, even separate and apart from finding his vocal tone and vocal stylings annoying and irritating, unless he was to donate at least 50% of his income to his rape victims.
A talented criminal is still a criminal and they should have kept him in jail for the rest of his life as far as I am concerned.
