I'd like to kindly and respectfully say that response made no sense to me. If EVER (hopefully not) you become the victim (by self or relation) you will know that people who commit murder have and visit their crime on the families of those murdered...do these people need special attention? I'd like to see more resources used for the FAMILIES of murdered persons. That would be justice in my world. Instead of caring what an inmate pays for the "corrupt" canteen goodies - how about we rally around the father/motherless children who were robbed by a murderer? The aged, heart broken elderly parents. The children, brother, sisters, neices, nephews, friends, co-workers who were ALL affected by the INSANE act of a predator who decides to do God's job and end a life?

You've hit the nail on the head with this reply Jeremy. From an outsider looking in, the systems used to run the USA are quite terrifying from a global perspective. For us here in Australia, the specific examples America provides are so often used as 'what not to do', or 'this is what will happen if we travel down this path'. Sadly, as allies of your country we do also ride on your coat tails and assist the 'world's superpower' to defend... what exactly I'm not sure (one of my University lecturers articulates it as defending the world's opium industry) we lost 5 more Australian soldiers this week in Afganistan. The result of such extremist thinking is some of the things you describe in your post, where humanity is left out of the equation altogether. It's heartbreaking. We of course have our own problems here yet our system seems so much more fair (some say lenient) in terms of sentencing and common sense, I believe our social structure is much more affective and I'm glad it is that way. I for one will do all I can to ensure we don't go the way of the USA.

I really enjoy reading your blogs.

Thank you for your insightful writing La'Ron. This might sound silly, but you remind me of a really good friend I used to have as a child. We were the best of friends in Colorado. Our parent's were good friends too. I never forgot about him. Last I heard, he was in the same predicament as you. I always wondered what happened to that little boy I once knew...who was so curious and full of excitement, and had his freedom cut short by a life behind bars. I feel your pain, though I do not understand it. Though your body is encaged, your Spirit is not. Continue to find reasons to sing La'Ron.

That was beautiful! When our children get to this stage of realising what matters, we know we've done a good job as mothers :)

Thank you for this post. I've replicated it today as part of a University assessment. I hope you don't mind (I promise I referenced you correctly :) I'm doing an ethnographic study into a virtual network over several weeks & your post related to this weeks material.

Your art is very striking, I do hope you're able to continue! As for it being seditious... I can't see any sign of that either - not even if I turn it upside down. Maybe that was his new word of the day & he didn't quite get the context... who knows...

Can you tell me, please, what "strong, mentally tough, loving, caring, kind, compassionate, intelligent woman" would choose a LWOP or death row inmate as her mate? I know that some women do. I've read about them. Special kind of crazy (in my book). My man will have to come home reasonably after work. My man will suffer my spaghetti dinners and cheap wine - and take out the garbage in the morning. My man will take my dearest treasures (my grandkids) to McDonalds on sunday morning while grandma sleeps. My man will sleep like he's never slept before when we finally get to bed.

Please stop with the lovefest stuff. I read somewhere you posted about all the "love" proposals you've gotten (mostly out of the US)?

Stop whining. You did your crime now you'll do your time. To think you would be advertising for a "lover" on a blog is pathetic. I guess you didn't learn your lesson (or she didn't) from your last liason?

I didn't know much about this person but I got to this website and read some of his postings. I must also voice my disdain that Ronald Clark decides he needs a woman. I did a quick google search about the attempted helicopter escape. If I voiced my thoughts about a "man" that would put a woman at risk you probably wouldn't print it. Having read (and enjoyed) most of Mr Clark's writings - I find this latest article about LOVE deeply disturbing and dishonest.
