Crime is what's uncivilized. He lost a leg, he's not going to do it again False assumption. He might be as hard-headed as yerself. Therefore, any criminal proceedings against him are unnecessary, cruel, and a waste of money and effort on top of that False conclusion. Might be just what the doctor ordered, after the prosthesis. |
