| Raised Hands Surround Us Three Nails To Protect Us  |
It can be wild sometimes how folks that were once very close can go in such different directions in life. Dave was one of my best friends through elementary school and middle school. Played baseball together, rode bikes, hung out, sleep overs. I moved away for High School and lost touch. Guess, he started hanging with the wrong folks. Not in a million years would I ever have imagined Dave doing something like this. I don’t really think he pulled the trigger but he was there and a part of it no doubt and deserves the consequences. When the case pops up in the news my heart breaks for the victim and his family but I am also sad for Dave and his family. I know folks change for the good and the bad just can’t say I really ever saw Dave going down that path but many times those High School years really root who one is to become. https://www.wcpo.com/news/crim...ow-hes-up-for-parole

People do change, and hopefully David is rehabilitated...but the manner of the execution makes me think he should spend the rest of his days in prison. Maybe he can help others in prison. God will forgive, but I don't blame the family if they choose not to forgive. | |||

Reading the prosecutor's report, I am with the family, he should never get out. They robbed him, put him in the trunk, drove to a secluded spot, and executed him. People don't surprise me much anymore. You don't mention it but that case screams out drugs and thugs. Was he into any of that when you knew him? | |||

Look at your children. Imagine them being executed like David Peet was. Do that and you’ll know what should happen to McGee. If anyone believes McGee has suffered enough, ask yourself how long Peet’s family will suffer. You’re a lying dog-faced pony soldier | |||

I don't know how anyone could kill like that and live with such a load to carry. Unless they've got no soul. It doesn't read like he will be one to get freedom. That is perhaps correct. I don't see how 23 years among other very bad people, one could change. Either way he has destroyed his own life. | |||

My best friends in elementary, middle and high schools are total strangers to me, haven't seen them since the late 70s and early 80s. If one of them did what McGee did, my attitude is hang 'em, hang 'em twice.

IMO that individual should've been hung by the neck until dead about twenty-two years ago. "America is at that awkward stage.

David McGee should have died in 2000. I say this as I have forgiven Eric Smallridge for killing two of my wife's sorority sisters while driving DUI. Eric has devoted his life to help prevent DUI accidents. https://www.themeagannapierfou...n.com/story_eric.php Beagle lives matter. ______ (\ / @\_____ / ( ) /O / ( )______/ ///_____/ | |||

+1000 This wasn’t a teen driver that made a poor decision that cost someone their life in an accident. This was a premeditated crime that ended with a premeditated execution. To reiterate, fuck that guy.

^I mentioned Eric to show that I can forgive even when a person has killed other people. I understand the two crimes are much different. I'm not finding the words right now, so yeah, Fuck David McGee. Beagle lives matter. ______ (\ / @\_____ / ( ) /O / ( )______/ ///_____/ | |||

Sorry dude. I have zero sympathy. That’s not to say I didn’t do some stupid shit when I was a teenager but kidnapping and execution murder style is way the fuck over the line. I hope you have better friends now.. ------------------ Eddie Our Founding Fathers were men who understood that the right thing is not necessarily the written thing. -kkina | |||

I would presume you are correct. I left when we were still in middle school and that stuff had not really come into play. Though as mentioned in my original High School can be a complete game changer for the paths folks choose to take.
To which we share the same sentiment. That does not mean I am not saddened knowing that somewhere after 8th grade someone who I grew up with and was pretty close with became a monster.
No sympathy needed. He made his choices and deserves the consequences. When Dave and I were friends there wasn’t a lick of anything like that clearly something changed. Drugs and thugs noted earlier are a likely culprit. ———————————————— The world's not perfect, but it's not that bad. If we got each other, and that's all we have.

Keep his cell door locked and throw away the key. In this day and age of ‘justice’ as it were, it will be interesting to see what the parole board decides. Justice should blind. __________ "I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy." | |||

My friend who is 82 and a Viet Nam Veteran, teaches a group of young folk, some are near 20 years of age, some have no parents, he feeds them on Wednesday nights, they play basket ball, throw a foot ball around, shoot pool, ping pong and darts, ride scooters and bikes, he feeds them and borrows 30 minutes of their time, to teach them a little about the Bible. Anthony Hawkins is a great human being. Some of the kids stray a little to smoke dope. Tony told me, he knows they do. He said, concerning the Bible, he can't just teach the good kids or it would do no good. You gotta teach the bad ones too. He loves those kids and they in turn love Tony. The one young man showed me his P365. I showed him a little on line Forum. There are near 30 young folk who are blessed to be in the company of Anthony Hawkins. | |||

Hopefully the parole board will do the right thing and keep him where he belongs. ___________________________ Avoid buying ChiCom/CCP products whenever possible. | |||
