I believe both Cher and Demi Moore have also coupled with much younger men from time to time. As long as both partners are of legal age, to each their own.
I'm not so sure about that. However, I do recall a story about a woman, who claimed to be the oldest living woman and it turned out that she was actually impersonating her deceased mother.
You "need to learn" to be able to put 2 + 2 together and come up with a correct answer. I put quotations on the word........ irrelevant". Think hard. Who used that word with regard to the charts I posted.
If the graphs are nonsense to you, then you either do not understand the situation, or you don't understand the figures. I guess the former, because I presume you can understand easy to understand figures.
No. I didn't miss what you were inappropriately trying to do. I already told you, that the death penalty is not much of a deterrent to murderers. Many murderers would RATHER be 'put to sleep' than get a life in prison.

my last comment was in response to Jac, not you Mic. Yes, as I already said, execution is favored by a significant percentage of murderers. So, it isn't a good deterent. But, it is irrelevant to the current situation, as it won't be employed versus the guilty.
You don't understand math, nor what is relevant. You'd have to compare it before and after the executions were initiated, both as rates. You statement suggested the NUMBER of murders. Well, of course there is going to be more murders, both the population has gone up AND more importantly the population density has gone up in Texas. Most of the murders happen in high population density areas.
The ideal test would be to relax the executions and to see if the rate goes up or down and then put them back again and see whether it goes up or down. But, AGAIN we aren't talking about executions in this case. We are talking about how long the jail sentence should be. That is very different than execution or not, as I covered in a previous comment.
Jac - I partially agree with your assessment, except for the fact, that sentencing is supposed to deter future crime. That is an important aspect of the sentencing. The entire nation, and much of the world is watching, whether the USA is for justice, or a police state. It is clear that this rouge cop intentionally killed George Floyd, and did so in a public display. The sentencing needs to be fair, not lenient. While the cop ended up ruining his future, that was his choice. At least he is still alive, unlike his victim. He took away ALL that Floyd had. Floyd & his family deserve justice. The rest of the police should be given notice, that this type of rouge behavior will not be tolerated. It is appropriate that the sentencing be firm & fair, and serve to show that such rouge behavior will not be tolerated. Since Floyd's death, cops have killed on average 3 people per day in the USA. Some of that was justified. Too much of it was not. There needs to be change towards a less unrestrained killing machine. Cops need to be held more accountable for their actions and more psychologically evaluated before being hired.
