Through violence you may murder a hater, but you can't murder hate through violence. Darkness cannot put out darkness; only light can do that.

Donald TrumpExecuting a murderer is the only way to adequately express our horror at the taking of an innocent life. Nothing else suffices.

Now and in the future, Americans will live as free people, not in fear, and never at the mercy of any foreign plot or power.

Marilyn MansonIn almost every interview someone asks what does HIM stand for. I can't even remember our latest lie about that. When Hanson was hot, we said it means Hanson Is Murder.

Lawrence O'DonnellIf you look at the statistics of fratricide or intra-sibling homicide, it's extremely rare. And look at Burke [Ramsey] and JonBenet at the time of her murder. She was the powerhouse, the firecracker; she's the dominant one, not him. I just don't see it. And as I recall, John Ramsey passed a lie detector test. I can unequivocally say that Burke is not the killer nor do I think John Ramsey is the killer. Let's leave it there.

Michael Thomas FordI'm really interested in violence. And I think there's an inevitably cinematic property that violence brings to the moviegoing experience. But one still has to be thoughtful and mature about how you depict it and how you think it through. You have to think about the effects that violence has on audiences, and it's deployed so casually that I think it's losing its meaning. And when things like violence and murder and the dehumanization of other people lose their meaning, then we're really kind of in a place where we have to reexamine and take a hard look at ourselves.

John Shelby SpongI've seen lots of murders, no murder is ever nice, and I just don't think the victim's family has an opportunity to get all the justice they might want.

They can lobby their elected State's Attorney to have the death penalty on the table.
